Windows and Linux Robustness Benchmarks With Respect to Application Erroneous Behavior
Résumé
This chapter presents the specification of dependability benchmarks for general-purpose operating systems with respect to application erroneous behavior, and shows examples of benchmark results obtained for various versions of Windows and Linux operating systems. The benchmark measures are: operating system robustness (as regards possible erroneous inputs provided by the application software to the operating system (OS) via the application programming interface), the OS reaction, and restart times in the presence of faults. Two workloads are used for implementing the benchmark: PostMark, a file system performance benchmark for operating systems, and the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) middleware, a software layer on top of the OS allowing applications in Java language to be platform independent.
