Performance analysis seeks to discover the information bottlenecks in a computer system, and allows the system designer to create an optimal system for a specific need Starting with basic probability theory, this second edition moves to the more complicated topics of queueing networks and Markov chains, using applications and examples to illustrate key points Includes updated content that has developed in the past four years
