Abstract

Dr. Raj Jain's new book, The Art of Computer Systems Performance Analysis (ISBN: 0471-50336-3, 1991, 685 pages, Price: $52.95 John Wiley & Sons Inc., New York) is definitely the most comprehensive textbook in the field of Computer systems performance evaluation. As far as my knowledge goes there is no other competitive text that offers a cohesive collection of such a wide range of topics without compromising on the quality and depth of the exposition. The topics covered include -- measurement techniques and tools, experimental design and analysis, simulation, queueing models and a section on probability theory and statistics.
