Advances in high-performance computing have led to the broad use of computational studies in everyday engineering and scientific applications. A single study may require thousand...
Given the rapid rise of model-driven software development methodologies, it is highly desirable that tools be developed to support the use of design patterns in this context. This...

Early performance analysis based on Queueing Network Models (QNM) has been often proposed to support software designers during the software development process. These approaches a...
Abstract. Software performance prediction methods are typically validated by taking an appropriate software system, performing both performance predictions and performance measurem...
While it is widely agreed that architectural simplicity is a key factor to the success of large software systems, it is not obvious how to measure architectural complexity. Our ap...
