Paper Abstract:
|
As the Internet has become more pervasive, many research works have to relay on it. Mostly, an individual access for information is only required and a best effort way of providing such service may be quite enough. However in several computing projects that have been established nowadays, there is urgent need for good and scalable Internet performance as perceived by end users. Web users perceive good Internet performance as low latency, high throughput and high availability. Almost 40% latency, as perceived by users, is causing on a Web site side, therefore, there is a general consensus that intensive research in Web site design is needed. This paper discusses the impact of cluster-based Web systems design on user-perceived performance and presents results from empirical performance studies carried out for cluster-based Web systems. |
