Abstract
CPU-intensive application is one of the most commonly used application type in cloud computing. In order to effectively deal with CPU-intensive applications and improve the application efficiency of cloud computing, we have studied a lot on CPU-intensive application. Through the studies, we draw out some common features and characteristics of this kind of applications. Based on the features found, we establish a mathematical model for the CPU-intensive application which can be used to predict and analyze whether an unknown application is CPU intensive one or not. To verify the correctness of the model, we have done extensive experiments. The experimental results show that the model is correct and reasonable. It can effectively distinguish CPU intensive application from other kinds of applications. This is very helpful as it can serve as the basis for study of special process strategies for CPU intensive applications which can much benefit the application improvement.
