INTRODUCTION
WHAT is SYMIAN (SYMulation for Incident Analysis):
A TOOL: to improve the performance of the incident management;
-build model of Incident management process;
-evaluate performance;
-assess likely improvements;

SYMIAN Model of IT Support Organizations
We can consider each support group gi with i=1......N. Which is modeled as a G/G/si queue.
Each element of the transition matrix T represents the probability that transfer from support group gi to support group gj
The definition of ai and ci

Options for optimizing performance(1). Removing support groups. Its effect: the new closure vector will be . (where ≠ 1 ) the new transition matrix is (.
(2). Creating support groups.Its effect: the matrix is extended with the row N+1, j) = It will also be extended with the column i, N+1) =(fromi
(3). Merging support groups. It is equivalent to the removal of each group , followed by the creation of a new group. The ratio between the volume of incidents processed at each group need to be considered.

(4). Splitting support groups.It is equivalent to the removal of the old group , followed by the addition of two new groups.The incident volume for each of the two new groups should be considered.
(5). Changing staffing levels, work shifts, and incident management policies.The new staffing level should be defined with respect to the previous one .More realistic working shifts : 8-hour-per-day.Management policies can be changed at each support group.
Options for optimizing performance

ARCHITECTURE AND IMPLEMENTATION
9 components:Configuration Interface(CI)User Interface (UI)Configuration manager(CM)Parameter Identification Module(PIM)Simulation Core (SC) has three sub-components: 1)Incident Generator (IG)2)Incident Response
Coordinator(IRC)3)Incident Processor ( IP)Data Collector (DC)Trace Analyzer (TA)Statistics Module (SM)Reporting Module (RM)

EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS B. Evaluation of Configuration Changes
1.calculate the bottleneck score for each support group: BSi = ( FIi + FOi ) *RIi
2.SG22 and SG39 are the major performance bottlenecks of the organization
3.optimizing SG22 and SG39 might improve the performance of the BailUsOut IT support organization

EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS B. Evaluation of Configuration Changes
In order to improve the organization performance: increasing the operator efficiency and emulating an improvement in operator performance
launched a 40-round simulation to assess: MTTR improvement: 17.18%, MICD improvement: 2.05%
Better to split SG22 and SG 39 rather than merge SG22 and SG39
small changes to the configuration of support groups with a large fan in and fan out can have a relatively large impact on the whole system behavior

CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE WORK
To optimize the performance of large-scale IT support organizations is complex
SYMIAN is tool for the performance optimization of incident management in IT support organizations
In SYMIAN evaluation, open queuing network models could reproduce the behavior of real-life IT support organizations with a very high degree of accuracy, which calls for further study of bringing deeper understanding
