Supported Functionality The Java Run Time Deadlock Monitoring Agent is intended to monitor the Java Virtual Machine for Thread Behavior, Object Locks, Stack Traces until a deadlock is detected. The Agent is intended to report the Java Developer the Threads that are involved in the deadlock along with Stack Traces and Object locks allocations for the deadlocked threads in a Graphical User Interface. How to Use the Software? 1. The Java Run Time Deadlock Monitoring Agent is downloaded to the local directory. 2. The Java Application to be monitored is run in parallel with the Agent with the following command java -agentpath:/pathTo/DDAgent.dll JavaProgram 3. On executing the above command if any deadlock is detected the Graphical User Interface Pops up with the Threads involved in Deadlock along with the object lock allocations of the corresponding threads are displayed. 4 . Graphical User Interface 4.1 Overview This is the user interface for the Deadlock Detection Agent for the Java Runtime Environment. First and foremost, this agent is for displaying information to the user in a clean and easily understandable format. 8 Figure 1 of Section 4 4.2 Tabs The tabs going across the top of the screen correspond to the program threads that the JRE is running. Users are able click the tabs to bring up the information panels corresponding to that thread. 4.3 Thread Information There are information boxes in each threads tab. These boxes provide information on which the current tab’s thread is dependent on, the stack trace of the current thread, and each object to which the thread is synchronized. 9 . Figure 2 of Section 4 4.4 File Menu Exit: Once clicked closes the deadlock detection agent. (Alpha: Currently does not have functionality) AddTab (Alpha): Currently tests the functionality to add tabs to the user interface. These tabs are named by default “NewTab” Test (Alpha): Currently tests the functionality to remove tabs. Removes tabs of the name “NewTab”. This corresponds with AddTab functionality. 10 File Menu Screen Shot (Alpha) Figure 3 of Section 4 File Menu Screen Shot Figure 4 of Section 4 4.5 Help About: Once clicked, pops up a message box with information about the creators of the Deadlock Detection Agent. Figure 5 of Section 4 Figure 6 of Section 4 11 5 . Missing Functionality & Known Defects The DDAgent System does not successfully detect deadlock. Explanation: At the insistence of the client, DDAgent relies on JVMTI to interact with the java virtual machine. The overall deadlock detection design was to build a directed Graph of Java Threads where a waiting thread has a directed edge to a owning thread for a given monitor. Two methods were utilized to attempt to collect enough information from the JVM. Given the documentation for the JVMTI, there was no expectation for problems with the implementation. Method 1: Using the JVMTI, register a callback on thread entering a monitor. On entering a monitor: 1: DDAgent enumerate all threads, then 2: Collects a list of: a: owned monitors, that is monitors a given thread had a lock on b: contended monitor, that is, the monitor, if any, the thread was waiting for. The intent was to build a digraph from this information. Upon execution of this method, The JVMTI would report that the same monitor was owned by 2 threads. This should not be a possible state for the Java Virtual Machine to be in. Method 2: Using the JVMTI, register a callback on a thread entering a monitor On entering a monitor: 1: DDAgent enumerates all monitors a: Fetch the owning thread for each monitor b: Fetch a list of waiting threads for each monitor. The intent was to build a digraph from this information. Upon execution, the JVMTI did not show any cyclic thread waiting when a Deadlock was clearly present in the sample program. That is, There was no Thread A waiting on Thread B waiting on Thread A. Without a way to get accurate information about the state of the JVM from the JVMTI, there was no way for this project to complete successfully. 12 6 . Trouble Shooting 6. 1. JAVA RUNTIME ENVIRONMENT (JRE) NOT INSTALLED ERROR: 'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Figure 1 of Section 6 REASON: ● JAVA Runtime Environment is not installed. ● JAVA_HOME path is not set SOLUTION: ● Make sure JRE is installed correctly, if not follow the instructions in section 1. a for installing JRE ● Verify in system environment variables whether the JAVA_HOME path is set. If not set the JAVA_HOME path as: “setx JAVA_HOME "PATH_TO_YOUR_JAVA_FOLDER\Java\jdk1.7.0_01" in the Command Prompt. 13 6.2. INCORRECT JAVA PROGRAM PATH (or) JAVA PROGRAM NOT COMPILED. ERROR: Error: Could not find main class <Java_Program_Name> Figure 2 of Section 6 REASON: ● Incorrect path to the user Java program ● Typo in the Java program name. ● Java program not compiled by user (class file not generated) SOLUTION: ● Ensure if correct path to the Java program is given ● Check for the user Java program name. 6. 3. INCORRECT AGENT LIBRARY NAME ERROR: Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not find agent library DDAAgent.dll in absolute path, with error: Can't find dependent libraries 14 Figure 3 of Section 6 REASON: ● The Agent name is incorrectly typed (DDAgent.dll) SOLUTION: ● Make sure the agent name is specified correctly and check for the path of the agent library.

  • Measuring Consumer Welfare in the CPU Market
    Measuring Consumer Welfare in the CPU Market. Minjae Song∗ Department of Economics, Harvard University [email protected] October, 2002 Abstract The personal computer Central Processing Unit (CPU) has undergone a dramatic improve- ment in quality, accompanied by an equally remarkable drop in prices in the 1990s. How have these developments in the CPU market affected consumer welfare? This paper estimates de- mand for CPUs and measures consumer welfare. The model is based on a quasilinear utility function with one random variable. The model does not have the idiosyncratic logit error term, so that consumer welfare directly reflects consumers’ valuation of product characteristics. Wel- fare calculations show that consumer surplus makes up approximately 90% of the total social surplus and that a large part of the welfare gains comes from the introduction of new products. Similar results are found when the model is extended to include two random coefficients without the idiosyncratic logit error term - the pure characteristics demand model. Simulation results show how “quality competition" among firms can generate a large gap between the reservation and actual prices. ∗I especially thank Ariel Pakes, Gary Chamberlain, and Dale Jorgenson for their valuable advice and support. I also thank John Asker, Steve Berry, Liran Einav, Gautam Gowrisankaran, Matthew Gentzkow, Jason Hwang, Markus Mobius, Julie Mortimer, Amil Petrin and seminar participants at Harvard University for their helpful comments. I am grateful to Steve Berry and Ariel Pakes for sharing their search algorithm used to do a robustness test on the model specification. All errors are mine. 1 1Introduction The past decade has seen a dramatic improvement in performance of the personal computer Cen- tral Processing Unit (CPU).1 Rapid advances in manufacturing technology have allowed a new generation of products to emerge every two to three years.
