The Architectural Performance Modelling Method is
presented as a criteria for selecting the
organisation of a parallel program based on
estimating its probable performance. An Architectural
Performance Model is based on selecting from the
Architectural Patterns for Parallel Programming
(descriptions of coodinations commonly used in
Parallel Programming), a component simulator
(representing a simulation of a processing
components behaviour), and a performance analysis of
parallel applications (in which the information on
system performance is examined). Parallel programs
simulated using the...
