IMPROVEMENTS IN A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATION OF COMPUTER RESOURCE USAGE BY TRANSACTION TYPES

摘要

The present invention provides a system (10) and method (30) for estimating computing resource usage (14) for each transaction type comprising the steps of obtaining utilisation data and transaction count data, applying a linear least squares algorithm (32) to the input data (22), wherein the linear least squares algorithm (32) comprises further steps arranged to reduce the time required to perform the aforementioned linear least squares algorithm computation.
