Abstract
Performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication systems has become an increasingly important issue given their general pervasiveness. Evaluating of these systems is needed at every stage in their life. There is no point in designing and implementing a new system that does not have competitive performance. Performance evaluation of an existing system is also important since it helps to determine how well it is performing and whether any improvements are needed in order to enhance the performance. Computer and telecommunications systems performance can be evaluated using measurement, analytic modeling and simulation. Once a system has been built and is running, its performance can be evaluated using measurement techniques. In order to evaluate the performance of a component, or subsystem that cannot be measured, for example, during the design and development phases, it is necessary to use analytic or simulation modeling so as to predict the performance. The objective of this talk is to provide an up-to-date treatment of the fundamental techniques and algorithms of computers, networks, and telecommunications systems performance modeling, simulation and measurement. Special emphasis will be given to discrete event simulation. The application of these techniques will be demonstrated by case studies and examples.
