    Abstract
  • Software aging is a phenomenon observed in a software application executing continuously for a long period of time, where the state of software degrades and leads to performance degradation, hang/crash failures or both. A technique named rejuvenation was proposed to counteract this problem. Rejuvenation in period is not a good idea, because the speed of software aging is not constant, but variable. The key to find an optimal timing to resist aging problem is how to analyze/forecast the resource consumption of aging system. An ARIMA model is applied to forecast resource consumption due to software aging in a running web server. First, order and parameters of ARIMA model need to be identified. Second, it needs to be checked whether the model satisfies stationarity and reversibility. Finally, ARIMA model is used to predict resource consumption. The experiment results indicate that ARIMA model can do better than ANN model and SVM model in the forecasts of available memory and heap memory.
