Description
Today's computer systems handle more functions for more users and have become very complex. As users become increasingly reliant, the demand for good performance grows, creating a need for better modelling techniques and tools in the performance area. In the last few years, significant advances and contributions have been made; this workshop was a meeting point where researchers and practitioners could voice their concerns, and where recent R&D issues in both theoretical and practical aspects of systems performance evaluation could be presented. The workshop mainly covered modelling and measurement techniques and packages, as well as the use of AI tools in this area. 100 people from different fields in 12 different countries exchanged news on advances, contributions and future trends. Several modelling techniques were presented in a general way or in order to provide the analysis of specific problems or applications in the field of computer and communication systems. Statistical methods, aspects of performance evaluation in supercomputers and scientific applications, as well as a review of performance of loosely coupled arrays of processors, were discussed.
