Abstract--Modeling environments and performance prediction boost application productivity, but often lack integration into an efficient and comprehensive approach to strategic desi...
—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...
Performance prediction methods for component-based software systems aim at supporting design decisions of software architects during early development stages. With the increased a...
Conventional performance evaluation mechanisms focus on dedicated systems. Grid computing infrastructure, on the other hand, is a shared collaborative environment constructed on v...
Even with todays hardware improvements, performance problems are still common in many software systems. An approach to tackle this problem for component-based software architectur...
Vector, emerging (homogenous and heterogeneous) multi-core and a number of accelerator processing devices potentially offer an order of magnitude speedup for scientific application...
Recently, performance prediction has been successfully applied in the field of information retrieval for content analysis and retrieval tasks. This paper discusses how performance ...
Modern disk drives read-ahead data and reorder incoming requests in a workload-dependent fashion. This improves their performance, but makes simple analytical models of them inade...
