Abstract
A remote processing network aims at reducing the time and cost of developing software at geographically dispersed sites. This is feasible by eliminating duplication and by providing the remote developers access to a wider range of test systems and computing facilities. Ordinary telecommunications networks that connect geographically dispersed sites may not be sufficiently reliable, and may not provide sufficient bandwidth to allow consideration of remote computing and testing. The design of a reliable network is thus an important factor to the success of such a project. The objective of this paper is to present an approach to analyze the availability of a network for remote processing as well as the availability of its services. The approach in this study uses a general evaluation algorithm (SYREL). This algorithm has been implemented in C and is used as a tool to analyze the availability of the remote processing network.
