Evaluation nets for computer system performance analysis

The growing complexity of modern computer systems has made performance evaluation results more and more difficult to obtain. The difficulty of representation and analysis of combination hardware/software systems has increased with the level of sophistication used in their design. One popular approach that has been used for evaluating proposed computer systems is simulation.
