# Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
*Também disponível em: [🇧🇷 Português](./metrics.md)*
|
||||
|
||||
PSS automatically computes a set of metrics at the end (or during) the simulation. This document explains each metric, its formula, what it represents, and how to read it in the charts.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Per-Process Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
These metrics are computed individually for each simulated process.
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | Formula | What it means |
|
||||
|--------|---------|----------------|
|
||||
| **Arrival Time** | `arrivalTime` | Tick at which the process first entered the Ready queue |
|
||||
| **First CPU Tick** | `startTick` | Tick at which the process first used the CPU |
|
||||
| **Finish Time** | `finishTick` | Tick at which the process completed its execution |
|
||||
| **Response Time** | `startTick − arrivalTime` | How long the process waited before receiving the CPU for the first time |
|
||||
| **Turnaround Time** | `finishTick − arrivalTime` | Total lifetime of the process (arrival → completion) |
|
||||
| **Waiting Time** | `turnaround − cpuTime − ioTime` | Total time spent in the Ready queue (doing nothing useful) |
|
||||
| **CPU Time** | Σ ticks in Running state | Total CPU actually consumed |
|
||||
| **I/O Time** | Σ ticks in Waiting state | Total time waiting for I/O devices |
|
||||
| **CPU Utilization** | `cpuTime / turnaround × 100` | Percentage of the turnaround time the process was actually using the CPU |
|
||||
| **Bound Type** | see below | Classification of the process as CPU Bound, I/O Bound, or Balanced |
|
||||
|
||||
### Table visualization
|
||||
|
||||
In the **Per Process** tab, each row displays inline horizontal mini progress bars next to the numeric values. The bars are proportional to the **largest value of the same metric among all processes**, enabling immediate visual comparison:
|
||||
|
||||
| Column | Bar color |
|
||||
|--------|-----------|
|
||||
| Response Time | Amber |
|
||||
| Turnaround Time | Blue |
|
||||
| Waiting Time | Orange |
|
||||
| CPU Time | Emerald |
|
||||
| I/O Time | Cyan |
|
||||
| CPU Utilization | Violet → Blue gradient |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Global Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
Computed over the complete set of processes in the simulation.
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | Formula |
|
||||
|--------|---------|
|
||||
| **Avg Response Time** | Average of all processes' response times |
|
||||
| **Avg Turnaround Time** | Average of all turnaround times |
|
||||
| **Avg Waiting Time** | Average of all waiting times |
|
||||
| **CPU Throughput** | `completed processes / total simulation time` |
|
||||
| **CPU Utilization (global)** | `Σ Running ticks / total time × 100` |
|
||||
| **Total Simulation Time** | Tick of the last completion event |
|
||||
|
||||
In the **Global** tab, each time card (Response, Turnaround, Waiting) displays a bar proportional to the **total simulation time**, indicating "how much of that total time the average process spends in that state". The CPU Utilization bar uses an amber → green gradient to indicate utilization health.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## CPU Bound vs. I/O Bound Classification
|
||||
|
||||
At the end of the simulation, each process is automatically classified based on the proportion of time spent on CPU and I/O:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cpuRatio = cpuTime / (cpuTime + ioTime)
|
||||
ioRatio = ioTime / (cpuTime + ioTime)
|
||||
|
||||
cpuRatio ≥ 0.65 → CPU Bound
|
||||
ioRatio ≥ 0.65 → I/O Bound
|
||||
otherwise → Balanced
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- **CPU Bound:** the process spends most of its time using the processor.
|
||||
- **I/O Bound:** the process spends most of its time waiting for I/O devices.
|
||||
- **Balanced:** the process uses CPU and I/O in a balanced way.
|
||||
|
||||
> **In the process list:** estimate computed from the declared bursts (before simulation).
|
||||
> **In the metrics table:** classification computed from the actual recorded times.
|
||||

## Charts ("Chart" tab)
|
||||
|
||||
### Comparative Profile — Radar Chart
|
||||
|
||||
Displayed when there are **2 or more processes**. Each axis represents a time dimension, normalized from 0–100% relative to the largest value in that dimension among all processes:
|
||||
|
||||
| Axis | Meaning |
|
||||
|------|---------|
|
||||
| **Turnaround** | Relative total lifetime |
|
||||
| **Response** | Relative time to first CPU |
|
||||
| **Waiting** | Relative time in the Ready queue |
|
||||
| **CPU Time** | Relative CPU usage |
|
||||
| **I/O Time** | Relative I/O usage |
|
||||
|
||||
Each process is drawn as a colored polygon (the color configured for the process). Wider polygons indicate processes with larger times in the corresponding dimensions. The radar chart is ideal for identifying **profile differences** between processes — for example, a CPU Bound process will have a much larger CPU Time axis than I/O Time.
|
||||
|
||||
### Per-Process Breakdown — Stacked Bar Chart
|
||||
|
||||
Always displayed. Each bar represents a process, with stacked segments:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Amber** — Waiting Time
|
||||
- **Green** — CPU Time
|
||||
- **Cyan** — I/O Time
|
||||
|
||||
The total height of each bar equals the **Turnaround Time** of the process.
|
||||

|
||||
## Example
|
||||
|
||||
Consider three processes with the following bursts:
|
||||
|
||||
| Process | Bursts | cpuTime | ioTime | cpuRatio | Classification |
|
||||
|---------|--------|:-------:|:------:|:--------:|:--------------:|
|
||||
| P1 | CPU:8, IO:1, CPU:1 | 9 | 1 | 90% | CPU Bound |
|
||||
| P2 | CPU:1, IO:8, CPU:1 | 2 | 8 | 20% | I/O Bound |
|
||||
| P3 | CPU:4, IO:2, CPU:4 | 8 | 2 | 80% | CPU Bound |
