Abstract

The goal of the International Conference on Performance Engineering(ICPE) is to integrate theory and practice in the field of performance engineering by providing a forum for sharing ideas and experiences between industry and academia&#046; ICPE is a joint meeting of the ACM Workshop on Software and Performance (WOSP) and the SPEC International Performance Evaluation Workshop (SIPEW)&#046; The conference brings together researchers and industry practitioners to share and present their experience, to discuss challenges, and to report state&#8211;of&#8211;the&#8211;art and in&#8211;progress research on performance engineering of software and systems&#046;<br>After the conference there will be a call for a Special Issue on Automation in Software Performance Engineering of the Springer Automated Software Engineering Journal&#046;<br>Topics of interest include, but are not limited, to:<br>Performance and software development processes<br>Techniques to elicit and incorporate performance, availability, power and other extra&#8211;functional requirements throughout the software and system lifecycle<br>Agile, performance&#8211;test&#8211;driven development<br>Performance engineering in commercial&#8211;off&#8211;the&#8211;shelf (COTS) systems; service&#8211;oriented architectures (SOA); web&#8211;based systems and services; smart systems; automated control systems; transport systems; embedded, real&#8211;time and mobile systems<br>Performance&#8211;requirement reengineering and design for software performance predictability<br>Software performance modeling, patterns and anti&#8211;patterns<br>Performance modeling and prediction<br>Languages, annotations, tools and methodologies to support model&#8211;based performance engineering<br>Analytical, simulation, statistical, AI&#8211;based and hybrid modeling/prediction methods<br>Automated model discovery and model building<br>Model validation and calibration techniques<br>Performance measurement and experimental analysis<br>Performance measurement, monitoring and workload characterization techniques<br>Test planning, tools for performance, load testing, measurement, profiling and tuning<br>Automated model extraction for functional or partially functional systems<br>Methodologies for performance testing and for functional testing<br>Reproduction and reproducibility of performance studies<br>Benchmarking, configuration, sizing, and capacity planning<br>Benchmark design and benchmarking methods, metrics and suites<br>Development of new, configurable and/or scalable benchmarks<br>Use of benchmarks in industry and academia<br>System configuration, sizing and capacity planning techniques<br>System management/optimization<br>Use of models for run&#8211;time configuration/management<br>Online performance prediction and model parameter estimation<br>Adaptive resource management<br>Performance in cloud, virtualized and multi&#8211;core systems<br>Modeling, monitoring, and testing of cloud computing platforms and applications<br>Performance/management of virtualized machines, storage and networks<br>Performance engineering of multi&#8211;core and parallel systems<br>Performance and power<br>Algorithms for combined power and performance management<br>Instrumentation, profiling, modeling and measurement of power consumption<br>Power/performance engineering in grid/cluster/cloud/mobile computing systems<br>Performance modeling and evaluation in other domains such as:<br>Web&#8211;based systems, e&#8211;business, web services, SOAs<br>Transaction&#8211;oriented and event&#8211;based systems<br>Embedded and autonomous systems<br>Real&#8211;time and multimedia systems<br>Peer&#8211;to&#8211;peer, mobile and wireless systems<br>
