Prediction-based Dynamic Thread Pool Scheme for Efficient Resource Usage

초록

A dynamic thread pool model is one of a multi-thread server programming model that handles many requests from users concurrently. Even though a model such as watermark thread pool model overcomes the efficient usage of resources, it would be more efficient to obtain the required number of threads in advance. In this paper, we implement a prediction-based dynamic thread pool model using customized exponential average for the utilization of occupied but unused resources. This model is designed to improve the response time of a server, and efficiently uses the system resources depending on the number of users' requests. Our result shows that this model outperforms watermark thread pool using the smaller resources.
