Abstract: In order to understand how to predict the performance of concurrent computing systems, an experimental environment is needed. The purpose of the research conducted under the grant was to investigate various aspects of this environment. A first performance prediction system was developed and evaluated (by comparison both with simulations and with actual systems). The creation of a second, complementary system is well underway.
