A Structural Approach for Modelling Performance of Systems Using Skeletons

In this paper, we discuss a structural approach to automatic performance modelling of skeleton based applications. This uses a synthesis of performance evaluation process algebra (pepa) and a pattern-oriented hierarchical expression scheme. Such approaches are important in parallel and distributed systems where the performance models must be updated regularly based on the current state of the resources.
