Abstract. Restart is an application-level technique that speeds up com-
pletion for jobs with highly variable completion times. In this paper, we
present an efficient iterative algorithm to determine the optimal restart
strategy if there are a finite number of restarts, and if one is interested in
minimising higher moments of the completion time. We demonstrate its
computational efficiency in comparison with alternative algorithms. We
also discuss fast approximations to determine close to optimal restart
times for limiting cases.
1 Introduction
The work in this paper applies to various forms of ‘restart,’ which simply implies
that a task is retried after some time threshold has passed. Restart finds its
application in areas ranging from randomised algorithms [2] to distributed data
base queries [6], Internet agents [3] and software rejuvenation [1]. Probably the
most commonly experienced restart mechanism is clicking the reload button of
the web browser when a download takes too long.
The basic form of restart can be conveniently modelled assuming that (1)
successive downloads are statistically independent and identically distributed,
and (2) new tries abort previous tries. Such model assumptions have been found
realistic for Internet applications [3, 5]. Under these assumptions, we provide in
this paper an efficient algorithm to determine the optimal time instances at which
to initiate restarts, so that higher moments of completion time are minimised.
As we showed in [4], the optimal restart strategy for unbounded number of
restarts can be determined in straightforward manner, as can that for a finite
number of restarts and the first moment. However, the combination of higher
moments and fin
