abstract
We have developed a methodology for constructing performance models of different types of concurrent programs, and hence obtaining estimates of execution times on different multiprocessor machines. A given class of program is characterized in terms of a small set of parameters which summarise the behaviour of the program over time. Synthetic programs with selected sets of parameters can then be generated and their execution simulated on a model of some given parallel machine. By varying the parameters systematically, we can discover which factors most affect performance.
