Description
The MCPR Workshop is an interdisciplinary computer science/mathematics event. It takes place once very fourth year and is aimed at evaluating the latest progress in modeling techniques in the area of performance and reliability engineering of computer/communication systems. Like its predecessor, the workshop from which these papers originate aimed at stimulating the exchange of ideas and experience among scientists active in mathematics research relevant to performance and reliability aspects of the design of computer and communication systems. The spirit of these exchanges and the main issues at stake are defined by an unceasing and difficult quest for models and techniques which are in the interests of mathematical tractability and accuracy, and at the same time allow for enough realism so as to yield results which are pertinent to system designers. This was reflected in the present program, which proposed a balanced and varied mixture of approximation techniques, of simulation methods and of analytical results on queueing, matrix and Petri net models.
