Building High Performance & Highly Available Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Over the past 15 years I have been involved in the development of several performance critical and highly available systems for telecommunications, process control, securities trading, and satellite management. All these systems have the goal of reaching at least 99.999% availability. In addition, they all have elements that require high performance. Some of these systems have pieces with hard real-time constraints while others simply have a need for high transaction throughput. Several of these systems are widely deployed and hence they provide examples of successful highly available and high performance systems.

OPTIMIZATION-BASED MONITORING-SUPPORTED CALIBRATION OF A THERMAL PERFORMANCE SIMULATION MODEL
Building performance simulation is being increasingly deployed beyond the building design phase to support efficient building operation. Specifically, the predictive feature of the simulation-assisted building systems control strategy provides distinct advantages in view of building systems with high latency and inertia. Such advantages can be exploited only if model predictions can be relied u...
متن کاملHighly-Available, Scalable Network Storage
The ideal storage system is always available, is incrementally expandable, scales in performance as new components are added, and requires no management. Existing storage systems are far from this ideal. The recent introduction of low-cost, scalable, high-performance networks allows us to re-examine the way we build storage systems and to investigate storage architectures that bring us closer t...
متن کاملA Design Framework for Highly Concurrent Systems
Building highly concurrent systems, such as large-scale Internet services, requires managing many information flows at once and maintaining peak throughput when demand exceeds resource availability. In addition, any platform supporting Internet services must provide high availability and be able to cope with burstiness of load. Many approaches to building concurrent systems have been proposed, ...
متن کاملInvestigating the role of high-rise building shell elements in reducing energy consumption (case example: Isfahan Cascade doctors' residential towers)
Significant energy is used to provide and maintain environmental conditions for thermal comfort in high-rise residential buildings, which largely depends on the components of the shell design. Therefore, to achieve high amounts of energy savings in buildings, high-impact design measures must first be defined and then optimized. This study seeks to answer the question of how the components of th...
متن کاملA Comparative Study on Seismic Performance of Hexagrid, Diagrid and Tubular Structural Systems
Hexagrid structural system is an innovated system with structural behavior which is similar to a tubular system. In this paper, a numerical study is conducted to estimate the seismic performance of horizontal hexagrid concerning the combined horizontal and vertical hexagrid, tubular and diagrid structural systems. First 30 and 50 story buildings are modeled using ETABS, then pushover and nonlin...
