Since a large-scale application of ARMS is not available, the most straightforward way to investigate the ARMS performance is through a modeling and simulation approach. In this work, an ARMS performance modeling and simulation environment (ARMSim) is presented. The ARMSim kernel is composed of a model composer and a simulation engine, while users can input related information and get simulation outputs from corresponding GUIs. A case study is included using an example model with more than 1000 agents, and several experiments carried out each involve nearly 100,000 requests. ARMSim enables the ARMS agent performance to be investigated quantitatively, and simulation results have the potential to be used at running time for online ARMS performance improvement.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0037549704045052","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,9,13]],"date-time":"2004-09-13T20:00:29Z","timestamp":1095105629000},"page":"221-229","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["ARMSim: A Modeling and Simulation Environment for Agent-Based Grid Computing"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"80","author":[{"given":"Junwei","family":"Cao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"C&C Research Laboratories NEC Europe Ltd., Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,5,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","volume-title":"The GRID: Blueprint for a new computing infrastructure","author":"Foster, I.","year":"1998"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/0470867167"},{"key":"atypb3","volume-title":"Enterprise Corba","author":"Slama, D.","year":"1999"},{"key":"atypb4","volume-title":"The Jini\u2122 specification","author":"Amold, K.","year":"1999"},{"key":"atypb5","volume-title":"Web services description language (WSDL) 1.1","author":"Christensen, E.","year":"2001"},{"key":"atypb6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1142\/S0218194001000682"},{"key":"atypb7","first-page":"311","volume-title":"Proceedings of the 1st IEEE\/ACM International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid (CCGrid \u201901)","author":"Cao, J."},{"key":"atypb8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2002\/910792"},{"key":"atypb9","first-page":"49","volume-title":"Proceedings of the 17th IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS \u201903)","author":"Cao, J."},{"key":"atypb10","first-page":"198","volume-title":"Proceedings of the 3rd IEEE\/ACM International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid (CCGrid \u201903)","author":"Cao, J."},{"key":"atypb11","first-page":"87","volume-title":"IEE Proceedings\u2014Computers and Digital Techniques","author":"Spooner, D.
