Multiple choice

_____ simulation(s) use(s) a synthetic workload that is artificially generated to resemble the expected conditions in the target system.

  1. A trace-driven

  2. A self-driven

  3. Both 1 and 2

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Self-driven simulation generates synthetic workloads that artificially model expected conditions in the target system, unlike trace-driven simulation which uses recorded real-world event traces. This allows testing scenarios without requiring actual trace data.
