Middleware has been introduced to provide interoperability as well as transparent location of servers in heterogeneous client-server environments. Although such benefits accrue fro...
Abstract. Java is widely deployed on a variety of processor architectures. Consequently, an understanding of microarchitecture level Java performance is critical to optimize curren...
Stochastic performance models provide a powerful way of capturing and analysing the behaviour of complex concurrent systems. Traditionally, performance measures for these models ar...
A new approach in hierarchical optimisation is presented which is capable of optimising both the performance and yield of an analogue design. Performance and yield trade offs are ...
The queueing Petri net (QPN) paradigm provides a number of benefits over conventional modeling paradigms such as queueing networks and generalized stochastic Petri nets. Using qu...
