Quantifying and Predicting the Influence of Execution Platform on Software Component Performance
Michael Kuperberg · Repository KITopen (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) · 2010
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.
