“…Beilner advocated hierarchical and modular descriptions of models and showed how multiple solution techniques can be used with these model descriptions. The HIT environment demonstrated the feasibility of this approach [7]. Likewise, the Esprit Integrated Modelling Support Environment, IMSE, integrated several individual modeling tools and showed the potential of interchanging tools for performance studies [21].…”

Abstract. Next generation Software Performance Engineering tools will exploit a model interoperability paradigm that uses the performance modeling tool best suited to the software/hardware architecture issues and the life cycle stage of the assessment. The paradigm allows the use of existing tools to the extent possible without requiring extensive changes to them. The performance model solution should be transparent to the user. Significant milestones have been accomplished in the evolution of this paradigm. This paper covers key results in the areas of Model Interchange Formats, model transformations, tools, specification of experiments and results, and extensions for real-time and component-based systems. It then offers conclusions on next steps and the future of the model interoperability paradigm.

Service-oriented systems are designed for interconnecting with other systems. The provided services face timing constraints, the so-called latencies. We present a high-level performance evaluation technique that can be used by a system designer to obtain distributions of these latencies. This technique is capable of capturing nondeterministic, probabilistic and real-time aspects in one go. Under the hood, the technique is equipped with two mechanisms: (i) selection of the right abstraction of the model (to prevent a state space explosion) by evaluating the performance of executing models of different complexities; and (ii) an efficient algorithm in which basic estimates, simulation, and (probabilistic) model checking are combined. We illustrate our approach with an case on image processing of interventional X-ray systems.

To evaluate a software specification for its performance potential, it is necessary to supply additional information, not required for functional specification. Examples range from the execution cost of operations and details of deployment, up to missing subsystems and layers. The term "completions" is used here to include all such additions, including annotations, component insertions, environment infrastructure, deployment, communication patterns, design refinements and scenario or design transformations which correspond to a given deployment style. Completions are related to the purpose of evaluation, so they are tailored to describing the performance at a suitable level of detail. Completions for evaluating other attributes such as reliability or security are also possible. The paper describes how completions are added to a specification regardless of the language used (provided that it describes the system behaviour as well as its structure), and experience with completions in Use Case Maps.
