Quantifying and Predicting the Influence of Execution Platform on Software Component Performance

Download or read book Quantifying and Predicting the Influence of Execution Platform on Software Component Performance written by Michael Kuperberg and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The performance of software components depends on several factors, including the execution platform on which the software components run. To simplify cross-platform performance prediction in relocation and sizing scenarios, a novel approach is introduced in this thesis which separates the application performance profile from the platform performance profile. The approach is evaluated using transparent instrumentation of Java applications and with automated benchmarks for Java Virtual Machines.
