Measuring Computer Performance sets out the fundamental techniques used in
analyzing and understanding the performance of computer systems. The emphasis is
on practical methods of measurement, simulation, and analytical modeling. David
Lilja discusses performance metrics and provides detailed coverage of the
strategies used in benchmark programs. In addition to intuitive explanations of
key statistical tools, he describes the general "design of experiments"
technique and shows how the maximum amount of information can be obtained with
minimum effort. Features include appendices listing common probability
distributions and statistical tables and a glossary of important technical
terms.
