Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A generalized workload definition is presented which constructs measurable workloads of unit size from workload elements, called elementary processes. An elementary process makes almost exclusive use of one of the processors, CPU, I/O processor, etc., and is measured by the cost of its execution. Various kinds of user programs can be simulated by quantitative composition of elementary processes into a type. The character of the type is defined by the weights of its elementary processes and its structure by the amount and sequence of transitions between its elementary processes. A set of types is batched to a mix. Mixes of identical cost are considered as equivalent amounts of workload. These formalized descriptions of workloads allow investigators to compare the results of different studies quantitatively. Since workloads of different composition are assigned a unit of cost, these descriptions enable determination of cost effectiveness of different workloads on a machine. Subsequently performance parameters such as throughput rate, gain factor, internal and external delay factors are defined and used to demonstrate the effects of various workload attributes on the performance of a selected large scale computer system.
Download or read book Workload Modeling for Computer Systems Performance Evaluation written by Dror G. Feitelson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-23 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reliable performance evaluations require the use of representative workloads. This is no easy task since modern computer systems and their workloads are complex, with many interrelated attributes and complicated structures. Experts often use sophisticated mathematics to analyze and describe workload models, making these models difficult for practitioners to grasp. This book aims to close this gap by emphasizing the intuition and the reasoning behind the definitions and derivations related to the workload models. It provides numerous examples from real production systems, with hundreds of graphs. Using this book, readers will be able to analyze collected workload data and clean it if necessary, derive statistical models that include skewed marginal distributions and correlations, and consider the need for generative models and feedback from the system. The descriptive statistics techniques covered are also useful for other domains.

This book was released on 1976 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance evaluation is not just determining whether or not a system meets certain objectives; it is also understanding if and how system performance can be improved. A computer system analyst must master a number of techniques to ascertain important factors and their effect on system performance. The purpose of this book is to develop a better understanding of the problem of performance evaluation and to analyze available techniques within this concept. Directed to present and future computer analysts and designers, readers should be familiar with concepts of hardware organization, system architecture, and operating systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Krishna Kant provides a completely up-to-date treatment of the fundamental techniques of computer system performance modeling and evaluation. He discusses measurement, simulation, and analysis, and places a strong emphasis on analysis by including such topics as basic and advanced queuing theory, product form networks, aggregation, decomposition, performance bounds, and various forms of approximations. Applications involving synchronization between various activities are presented in a chapter on Petri net-based performance modeling, and a final chapter covers a wide range of problems involving steady state analysis, transient analysis, and optimization.
