A Basic Performance Model Interchange Format

by Connie U. Smith, Lloyd G. Williams , 1997
"... This paper describes a mechanism to enable users of performance modeling tools to transfer models among a set of tools. This paper describes the evolution and definition of a basic PMIF. It describes how tool developers can implement the PMIF and how the export and import would work for users. A sim ..."

A Compositional Approach to Performance Modelling

by Jane Hillston , 1996
"... Performance modelling is concerned with the capture and analysis of the dynamic behaviour of computer and communication systems. The size and complexity of many modern systems result in large, complex models. A compositional approach decomposes the system into subsystems that are smaller and more ea ..."

Performance Analysis of the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function

by Giuseppe Bianchi , 2000
"... Recently, the IEEE has standardized the 802.11 protocol for Wireless Local Area Networks. The primary medium access control (MAC) technique of 802.11 is called distributed coordination function (DCF). DCF is a carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) scheme with binary slott ..."

employed by DCF, namely, the basic access and the RTS/CTS access mechanisms. In addition, it also applies to a combination of the two schemes, in which packets longer than a given threshold are transmitted according to the RTS/CTS mechanism. By means of the proposed model, in this paper we provide

Modeling and performance analysis of bittorrentlike peer-to-peer networks

by Dongyu Qiu, R. Srikant - In SIGCOMM , 2004
"... In this paper, we develop simple models to study the performance of BitTorrent, a second generation peerto-peer (P2P) application. We first present a simple fluid model and study the scalability, performance and efficiency of such a file-sharing mechanism. We then consider the built-in incentive mec ..."

The Cache Performance and Optimizations of Blocked Algorithms

by Monica S. Lam, Edward E. Rothberg, Michael E. Wolf - In Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems , 1991
"... Blocking is a well-known optimization technique for improving the effectiveness of memory hierarchies. Instead of operating on entire rows or columns of an array, blocked algorithms operate on submatrices or blocks, so that data loaded into the faster levels of the memory hierarchy are reused. This ..."
Abstract - Cited by 574 (5 self) - Add to MetaCart
. This paper presents cache performance data for blocked programs and evaluates several optimizations to improve this performance. The data is obtained by a theoretical model of data conflicts in the cache, which has been validated by large amounts of simulation. We show that the degree of cache interference

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,

by ] Richard Hackman , Grec R Oldham , 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."
