Performance regressions, such as a higher CPU utilization than in the previous version of an
application, are caused by software application updates that negatively affect the …

Many large-scale software systems must service thousands or millions of concurrent
requests. These systems must be load tested to ensure that they can function correctly under …

Abstract Model checking approaches to the analysis of security protocols have proved
remarkably successful. The basic approach is to produce a model of a small system running …

Developers of thread-safe classes struggle with two opposing goals. The class must be
correct, which requires synchronizing concurrent accesses, and the class should provide …

The goal of performance regression testing is to check for performance regressions in a new
version of a software system. Performance regression testing is an important phase in the …

As software evolves, problematic changes can significantly degrade software performance,
ie, introducing performance regression. Performance regression testing is an effective way …

Performance is an important aspect of software quality. In fact, large software systems
failures are often due to performance issues rather than functional bugs. One of the most …

Performance is crucial for the success of an application. To build responsive and cost
efficient applications, software engineers must be able to detect and fix performance …

Regression performance testing is an important but time/resource-consuming phase during
software development. Developers need to detect performance regressions as early as …

Software hangs can be caused by expensive operations in responsive actions (such as time-
consuming operations in UI threads). Some of the expensive operations depend on the input …
