Modeling of Resource Allocation Mechanisms in Distributed Computing Systems using Petri Nets and Stochastic Activity Networks (SAN): a Review and Reo-based Suggestion
Resource allocation is crucial in the distributed systems. It is a key step
in designing the mechanisms of systems for determining the resource allocation
mechanism, it is important for obtaining the desired efficiency in the system,
plus it is vital for predicting and preventing Deadlocks. Various models of
Petri Net (Stochastic PN, Colored PN, Generalized PN, etc.) are used for
modeling, simulation, execution, and solving the problems of resource
allocation. SAN models are used for modeling the problems pertinent to resource
allocation. First, we shall address the basic concepts pertinent to these
models and the resource allocation problem (introduction chapter), then, some
applications of the Petri Net and SAN models in the distributed computational
systems or systems based on them shall be studied. Finally, the issues and
findings will be concluded
