Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 3 page paper discussing the need for the networking group to establish minimum standards in availability, reliability, response time and throughput. Before the networking group can establish values for these metrics, it needs to determine where minimum standards lay for each metric from the hardware perspective. Performance based on software and other features can be altered, but only to the extent that available hardware allows. Includes one illustration. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

to the speed and efficiency with which tasks are completed. Though it is desirable to establish metrics for availability, reliability, response time and throughput, the very terms can carry
different meanings in varying contexts. General textbook definitions typically are of limited value, because they cannot "be applied to measurements for lack of access to the requisite data or
lack of applicability to the meaningful outcomes" (Jorgenson, 2004). Establishing Service Levels Service time is the "amount of time a server takes to
complete work on a task" (Mean Value Analysis, n.d.). The utilization law is: U(i) = X(i) x S(i) , where i identifies
the server (Mean Value Analysis, n.d.). The Utilization Law can provide information on service time and throughput through measurement of the number of
tasks that arrive at the server during a specific period of time, and the time required for the tasks to be completed and to leave the server. In the
above equation, A = the number of tasks arriving at the server; B = the length of time that the server is busy processing those tasks; and C = the
number of tasks completed (Mean Value Analysis, n.d.). Mean service time is given by S = B ? C; throughput is given by X = C ? T.
U = B ? T returns the utilization of the server. Littles Law returns response time and throughput; the equation is:
n(i) = R(i) x X(i) , where i identifies the server (Mean Value Analysis, n.d.). where
