TLDR
A method of making long-range computer system workload predictions by identifying assumptions and considering the effect of a change on individual users, illustrated by an example involving message traffic in a large computer network is presented.Abstract:
A method of making long-range computer system workload predictions is presented. The method quantifies the effect of qualitative changes in computing by identifying assumptions and by considering the effect of a change on individual users. The method is illustrated by an example involving message traffic in a large computer network.read more

Performance modeling in the design process
William Alexander,Richard Brice +1 more
TL;DR: Performance modeling and analysis of computer systems are often ignored during the project design phase in favor of other techniques collectively known as structured design or software engineering as mentioned in this paper, and benefits that can result from including performance analysis as an integral part of the design process.

TL;DR: This work describes how it has attempted to organize a collection of tools into a single system that spans a broad subset of the measurement and analysis activities that occur in a complex network of heterogenous computers.
