Performance Analysis of Complex Systems by Integration of Dataflow Graphs and Compositional Performance Analysis
Simon Schliecker, Steffen Stein, Rolf Ernst · 2007
In this paper we integrate two established approaches to formal multiprocessor performance analysis, namely synchronous dataflow graphs and compositional performance analysis. Both make different trade-offs between precision and applicability. We show how the strengths of both can be combined to achieve a very precise and adaptive model. We couple these models of completely different paradigms by relying on load descriptions of event streams. The results show a superior performance analysis quality
