SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Workload Characterization for Computer System Design contains ten chapters dealing with contemporary programming paradigms such as Java, web server, and database workloads. It is useful to all those in industry and academia whose work involves estimating workloads for system design. The coverage includes: Two chapters on Java; One chapter on database workload benchmarks; Two chapters on web server workloads; One chapter on natural I/O applications; One chapter on network interface workloads; One chapter on control independence in programs; Two chapters on system-level characterization of two- and three-dimensional graphics applications on personal PCs. The contributors to this volume are internationally recognized experts whose experience spans both industrial applications and the academic community. Workload Characterization for Computer System Design is an essential reference tool that can also be used as a text in graduate-level courses on system design.
