Review

'... practically oriented book will be of interest to anyone who wants a detailed, yet intuitive, understanding of computer systems performance analysis.' Engineering Designer

'Measuring computer system performance is no mean task ... Lilja's book is conceptually well formulated, mathematically well grounded, and even intuitively appealing. The author focuses on the key issues in quantifying and characterizing the capacity and usage of a typical computer (or server, switch or any other device based on computing or networking architectures) ... an excellent reference for information technology managers who need a conceptual understanding of this topic in order to handle performance issues in computers and networks.' Charles K. Davis, Computing Reviews
