Performance by Design: Computer

Individual organizations and society as a whole could

face major breakdowns if IT systems do not meet their

Quality of Service (QoS) requirements on performance,

availability, security, and maintainability. Corporations

stand to lose valuable income, and public interests

could be put at great risk. System designers and

analysts usually do not take QoS requirements into

account when designing and/or analyzing computer

systems, due mainly to their lack of awareness about

the issues that affect performance and the lack of a

framework to reason about performance. This book

describes how to map real-life systems (e.g.,

databases, data centers, e-commerce applications) into

analytic performance models. The authors elaborate

upon these models, and use them to help the reader

thoroughly analyze and better understand potential

performance issues.
