A harmonic analysis of a historical data set for the workload for a given sampling period set is performed, the results of which are analyzed for periodicities (such as daily, weekly, monthly trends) . The harmonic analysis may be a Discrete Fourier Transformation which is used to generate an analytic function approximating the periodic demand pattern. The analytic function can be used for predicting future workload associated with current applications of the computing system. It can be used as part of an autonomous feedback system within computer system's internal workload management system for estimating future work load. |
