Computer and microprocessor architectures are advancing at an
astounding pace. However, increasing demands on performance coupled
with a wide variety of specialized operating environments act to
slow this pace by complicating the performance evaluation process.
Carefully balancing efficiency and accuracy is key to avoid
slowdowns, and such a balance can be achieved with an in-depth
understanding of the available evaluation methodologies.
Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking outlines a variety of
evaluation methods and benchmark suites, considering their
strengths, weaknesses, and when each is appropriate to use.
Following a general overview of important performance analysis
techniques, the book surveys contemporary benchmark suites for
specific areas, such as Java, embedded systems, CPUs, and Web
servers. Subsequent chapters explain how to choose appropriate
averages for reporting metrics and provide a detailed treatment of
statistical methods, including a summary of statistics, how to
apply statistical sampling for simulation, how to apply SimPoint,
and a comprehensive overview of statistical simulation. The
discussion then turns to benchmark subsetting methodologies and the
fundamentals of analytical modeling, including queuing models and
Petri nets. Three chapters devoted to hardware performance counters
conclude the book. Supplying abundant illustrations, examples, and
case studies, Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking offers a firm
foundation in evaluation methods along with up-to-date techniques
that are necessary to develop next-generation architectures.
