520 _aThis book provides an up-to-date treatment of the fundamental techniques and algorithms of computer system performance modeling and evaluation. The field of performance evaluation has progressed rapidly in the past ten years, only now beginning to approach maturity, and consequently developments are covered in technical journals. Analytic performance modeling is peculiar with regard to its mathematical content, which is rarely advanced, but the proliferation of mathematical symbols and nonstandard notation often makes it look unapproachable. Performance evaluation includes measurement, simulation, and analytic modeling to include model calibration and data analysis. The selection of the material has been guided by these goals and problems.
