Discovery grants - Individual reverse engineering performance models from trace data

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Distributed computing systems are becoming increasingly important for information access and for administration as organizations in education, health, government, and business move into networks of interacting computers. Constructing performance models of these systems has shown to be beneficial during all stages of a project. For example, a model can be used to set performance budgets for components of a system. The model can also be used to find feasible designs and locate potential bottlenecks. Finally, the model can be used to plan the resources required for installed systems. In all of these case cases, the use of models can lead to substantial cost savings for a performance-sensitive project.
