Abstract

Recently, a framework has been developed to automate the training of prediction algorithms but has only been tested on one system. In order to generalize the approach a few key functions must be performed. One of these functions is load generation. Unfortunately, a valid load generator has not been developed for a Microsoft Windows active directory environment. In this paper we introduce and detail a tool that we have developed to make the implementation of this new framework possible in a Microsoft domain, we present data generated by our tool to demonstrate its efficacy, and finish with several extensions and applications for our tool.
