Measuring Computer Performance sets out the fundamental techniques
used in analyzing and understanding the performance of computer
systems. Throughout the book, the emphasis is on practical methods
of measurement, simulation, and analytical modeling. The author
discusses performance metrics and provides detailed coverage of the
strategies used in benchmark programmes. He gives intuitive
explanations of the key statistical tools needed to interpret
measured performance data. He also describes the general 'design of
experiments' technique, and shows how the maximum amount of
information can be obtained for the minimum effort. The book closes
with a chapter on the technique of queueing analysis. Appendices
listing common probability distributions and statistical tables are
included, along with a glossary of important technical terms. This
practically-oriented book will be of great interest to anyone who
wants a detailed, yet intuitive, understanding of computer systems
performance analysis.
