SUMMARY:Performance Evaluation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems
DESCRIPTION:Performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication s
 ystems has become an increasingly important issue given their general 
 pervasiveness.  Evaluating of computer systems and networks is needed 
 at every stage in the life cycle of a computer system\, including its 
 design\, manufacturing\, sale/purchase\, use\, upgrade\, tuning\, etc.
  A performance evaluation is required when a computer system designer 
 wants to compare alternative designs and find the optimum and most cos
 t-effective one. There is no point in designing and implementing a new
  computer system that does not have performance that can not compete w
 ith an existing system in the market. Performance Evaluation is also n
 eeded when a computer center manager wants to compare a number of syst
 ems and decides which one is best for a given set of applications. Per
 formance evaluation of existing system is also important since it help
 s to determine how well it is performing and whether any improvements 
 or tuning (capacity planning) are needed in order to enhance its perfo
 rmance.\nThe objective of this tutorial is to provide an up-to-date tr
 eatment of the fundamental techniques and algorithms of computer and t
 elecommunications systems performance modeling\, simulation and measur
 ement. Special emphasis will be given to discrete event simulation. Th
 e application of these techniques will be demonstrated by case studies
  and examples.
