Determining workload of computer apparatus running computer program by determining run time of tasks after completion and subtracting run times upon interruption

摘要

The computer program is divided into several tasks (A,B,C), and each task includes at least one process. A time interval (T) is selected so that at least one task is started and ended during the time interval. After ending the (or each) task, the run time of the task is determined. If the ended task is interrupted by a further task, the run time of the further task is subtracted from the determined run time. Independent claims are also included for: (a) a storage device such as a ROM, RAM or flash memory for storing a computer program (b) a computer program (c) a device for determining the workload of a computer apparatus.
