Abstract

In this work, the main features of the Java Modelling Tool (JMT) are introduced. The standard algorithms for the so- lution of queueing networks with analytical, simulative and asymptotic techniques are reviewed. A new approach, based on command line interface and a scripting language, that in- creases the batch-analysis features of the tools is introduced. Two applications, for the optimization of a multi-tier system and a virtual environment are described. This proves how the JMT tool suite can be used to solve capacity planning problems.
