| Description | The paper identifies a lack in existing solutions to the component placement problem (optimal placement of system components on a given set of servers). The point is the insufficient attention of the interaction aspect of the problem (components with dense interaction should be placed on the same server). In the text, we formulate the problem of interaction-based component placement (as minimization of inter-server communication) and propose a solution to the interaction aspect of the CPP while allowing integration with existing algorithms for solving the non-interaction aspect of CPP (resource optimization). The algorithm is based on the Component-interaction automata language, which allows us to analyse the density of communication between two components, thanks to the information about communicating components in labels. |
