Identifying opportunities to improve multiprocess system performance
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for determining an index of a potential of Performance Improvement (PI) in a computerized system by utilizing a PI activity, the method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of values of a plurality of performance metrics of the computerized system, the plurality of performance metrics comprises at least a performance index metric;
determining a first portion of the plurality of performance metrics, each metric of the first portion has a potential of PI in response to performing the PI activity;
calculating the index of the potential of PI based on at least the plurality of values of metrics associated with the first portion, wherein the index is calculated in respect to the performance index metric; and
outputting an indication of the index of the potential of PI.

Abstract
Expert system may utilize multiple metrics to estimate whether a performance improvement activity has a potential to improve performance in respect to a predetermined performance metric. The multiple metrics may be propagated based on whether or not they may be affected by the activity and based on an associated value that may take into account the current value of the metric. An Index Propagation Graph may be further utilized to represent a propagation function which may propagate the potential of improvement of each metric in respect to the predetermined performance metric.
