An embodiment of the invention includes applying a first partition to a plurality of LPs, wherein a particular LP is assigned to a first set of LPs. A second partition is applied to the LPs, wherein the particular LP is assigned to an LP set different from the first set. For both the first and second partitions, lookahead values and transit times are determined for each of the LPs and related links. For the first partition, a first system progression rate is computed using a specified function with the lookahead values and transit times determined for the first partition. For the second partition, a second system progression rate is computed using the specified function with the lookahead values and transit times determined for the second partition. The first and second system progression rates are compared to determine which is the lowest.

Workload partitioning procedure for null message-based PDES

A method, an apparatus and an article of manufacture for generating a synthetic workload for stream computing. The method includes generating an undirected graph that meets a node degree distribution parameter, obtaining a user-defined parameter for at least one feature for at least one stream computing application, and manipulating the undirected graph to generate a synthetic workload for stream computing in compliance with the user-defined parameter for the at least one feature for the at least one stream computing application.
