Performance Method Fundamentals

abstract The Performance Design Methods described in this article are based on a multi-view approach. The needs are covered by a requirements view. The system design consists of a HW block diagram, a SW decomposition, a functional design and other models dependent on the type of system. The system design is used to create a performance model. Measurements provide a way to get a quantified characterization of the system. Different measurement methods and levels are required to obtain a usable characterized system. The performance model and the characterizations are used for the performance design. The system design decisions with great performance impact are: granularity, synchronization, priorization, allocation and resource management. Performance and resource budgets are used as tool.
