Description


The major aims of Performance Evaluation are to:

(1) collect and disseminate information relative to performance aspects, and in particular to the topics described below;

(2) promote interdisciplinary flow of technical information among researchers and professionals; and

(3) serve as a publication medium for various special interest groups in the performance community at large.

Topics are drawn from, but are not restricted to, the following areas:

• Performance studies of computers, computer communications, telecommunications and distributed systems

• Resource allocation and control methods and algorithms (e.g. routing and flow control in networks, bandwidth allocation, processor scheduling, memory management)

• System reliability

• Modeling and analysis methods (e.g. queueing and scheduling theory, simulation methods, data analysis)

• Measurement techniques (e.g. software and hardware monitors) and workload characterization

• System architecture, design and implementation discussed from a performance viewpoint

• Performance evaluation applications (e.g. system tuning, procurement, capacity planning)

• Case studies and model validations.

Types of articles include: original work, tutorials and surveys, news items, articles and book abstracts and reviews, and short communications.
