Performance tuning is an important and time consuming task which may have to be repeated for each new application and platform. Although iterative optimisation can automate this p...
—We present the derivation of a novel metric for the performance prediction of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In particular, the metric can be applied in, for example, monitori...
For a grid middleware to perform resource allocation, prediction models are needed, which can determine how long an application will take for completion on a particular platform o...
Conventional performance evaluation mechanisms focus on dedicated systems. Grid computing infrastructure, on the other hand, is a shared collaborative environment constructed on v...
Client interactions with modern web-accessible network services are typically organized into sessions involving multiple requests that read and write shared application data. Ther...
