One Processor‚ one job type Utilization Analysis Utilization (u) = fraction of time a resource is busy. Calculate u for each resource as shown on following slides. In a network (i.e.‚ system) where jobs flow through multiple resources‚ the one with the highest u is the “bottleneck.” Utilization must be kept below 1 (i.e.‚ 100%)‚ and as we will see later‚ if there is variability then u may need to even be kept significantly below 100%.
