Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Competition among software providers creates enormous pressure on design and development teams to improve application performance. However, increased performance leads to systems whose behaviour is harder to predict. This in turn makes software harder to manage, or self-manage in the case of autonomic software. In this paper we elaborate on this problem, first in generic terms, and then taking memory-usage monitoring in a Java Virtual Machine as a specific example. We motivate the need for more research in developing monitoring techniques that can cope with the complexity of modern software systems. We finally present our own efforts in this direction.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
