Web Server Performance Modeling using an M/G/1/K*PS Queue
Performance modeling is an important topic in capacity planning and overload control for web servers. We present an M/G/1/K*PS queueing model of a web server. The arrival process of HTTP requests is assumed to be Poissonian and the service discipline is processor sharing. The total number of requests that can be processed at one time is limited to K. We obtain closed form expressions for web serve
