Abstract

In many software development projects, performance requirements are not addressed until after the application is developed or deployed, resulting in costly changes to the software or the acquisition of expensive high-performance hardware. Many techniques exist for conducting performance modeling and analysis during the design phase; however, there is little information on their effectiveness. This paper presents an experiment that compared the predicted data from the UML Profile for Schedulability, Performance, and Time (SPT) paired with statistical simulation and coloured Petri nets (CPNs) for a sample implementation. We then discuss the results from applying these techniques.
