Typically, SLAs stipulate requirements for Web service response time percentiles, e.g., a specified target for the 95th percentile of response time. Violating SLAs can have adverse consequences for a Web service operator. Consequently, operators require systematic techniques to predict Web service response time percentiles. Existing prediction techniques are very time consuming since they often involve manual construction of queuing or machine...
