Model-driven performance engineering of self-adaptive systems
Matthias Becker, Markus Luckey, Steffen Becker · 2012
To meet quality-of-service requirements in changing environments, modern software systems adapt themselves. The structure, and correspondingly the behavior, of these systems undergoes continuous change. Model-driven performance engineering, however, assumes static system structures, behavior, and deployment. Hence, self-adaptive systems pose new challenges to model-driven performance engineering. There are a few surveys on self-adaptive systems, performance engineering, and the combination of both in the literature. In contrast to existing work, here we focus on model-driven performance analysis approaches. Based on a systematic literature review, we present a classification, identify open issues, and outline further research.
