摘要:Information and computing infrastructures (ICT) involve levelsof complexity that are highly dynamic in nature. This is due inno small measure to the proliferation of technologies, such as:cloud computing and distributed systems architectures, datamining and multidimensional analysis, and large scaleenterprise systems, to name a few. Effective computing andnetwork systems administration is integral to the stability andscalability of these complex software, hardware andcommunication systems. Systems administration involves thedesign, analysis, and continuous improvement of theperformance or operation of information and computingsystems. Additionally, social and administrative responsibilitieshave become nearly as integral for the systems administrator asare the technical demands that have been imposed for decades.The areas of operations research (OR) and system dynamics(SD) modeling offer system administrators a rich array ofanalytical and optimization tools that have been developed fromdiverse disciplines, which include: industrial, scientific,engineering, economic and financial, to name a few. This paperproposes a research framework by which OR and SD modelingtechniques may prove useful to computing and network systemsadministration, which include: linear programming, networkanalysis, integer programming, nonlinear optimization, Markovprocesses, queueing modeling, simulation, decision analysis,heuristic techniques, and system dynamics modeling.
