Computer Performance Engineering And Stochastic Modelling

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th European Workshop on Computer Performance Engineering, EPEW 2021, and the 26th International Conference, on Analytical and Stochastic Modelling Techniques and Applications, ASMTA 2021, held in December 2021. The conference was held virtually due to COVID 19 pandemic. The 29 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. The papers presented at the workshop reflect the diversity of modern performance evaluation, with topics ranging from modeling and analysis of network/control protocols and high performance/big data information systems, analysis of scheduling, blockchain technology, analytical modeling and simulation of computer and network systems.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th European Workshop on Computer Performance Engineering, EPEW 2023, and 27th International Conference on Analytical and Stochastic Modelling Techniques and Applications, ASMTA 2023, held in Florence, Italy, in June 2023. The 26 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 35 submissions. The papers presented at the workshop reflect the diversity of modern performance engineering. The sessions covered a wide range of topics including robustness analysis, machine learning, edge and cloud computing, as well as more traditional topics on stochastic modelling, techniques and tools.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th European Performance Engineering Workshop, EPEW 2007, held in Berlin, Germany, September 27-28, 2007. The 20 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 53 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Markov Chains, Process Algebra, Wireless Networks, Queueing Theory and Applications of Queueing, Benchmarking and Bounding, Grid and Peer-to-Peer Systems.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third European Performance Engineering Workshop, EPEW 2006, held in Budapest, Hungary in June 2006. The 16 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on stochastic process algebra, workloads and benchmarks, theory of stochastic processes, formal dependability and performance evaluation, as well as queues, theory and practice.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th European Workshop on Computer Performance Engineering, EPEW 2016, held in Chios, Greece, in October 2016. The 14 papers presented together with 2 invited talks in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 25 submissions. The papers presented at the workshop reflect the diversity of modern performance engineering, with topics ranging from the analysis of queueing networks and stochastic processes, to performance analysis of computer systems and networks, and even modeling of human behavior.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Modelling Tools and Techniques for Computer Communication System Performance Evaluation, TOOLS 2000, held in Schaumburg, IL, USA in March 2000. The 21 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 49 submissions. Also included are 15 tool descriptions and one invited paper. The papers are organized in topical sections on queueing network models, optimization in mobile networks, stochastic Petri nets, simulation, formal methods and performance evaluation, and measurement tools and applications.

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th European Performance Engineering Workshop, EPEW 2009, held in London, UK during July 9-10, 2009.
