Estimation of response time of laser complex data processing nodes

Abstract The work is devoted to problem of information exchange between elements and devices of a telecommunication network for laser technological complex. The laser complex is a combination of hardware and software designed to carry out operations based on the use of laser radiation. Laser complex structure provides a possibility of remote control through a client-server system built on the basis of TCP/IP protocol. The main requirements for industrial network of the complex are performance and predictability of information delivery time. To solve this problem, a probabilistic model for calculating the numerical characteristics of the distribution of requests timeout for external commands from control/monitoring nodes is proposed.
