Synopsis
This book introduces a new theoretical framework for analyzing computer system capacity. Using this framework, the author explores the relationships among processor, memory, and I/O bandwidth in both overlapped and non-overlapped machines. The book begins by deriving a mathematical formula for calculating theoretical capacity for various combinations of processor, memory, and I/O bandwidth. The author then shows how this formula can be used to compare different computer systems and to evaluate the performance of a given system on a particular set of computations. The book also discusses the tradeoff between primary memory size and I/O bandwidth, and provides a methodology for determining the optimal memory size for a given system. Using these concepts, the author provides a comprehensive analysis of computer system capacity, which will be of interest to computer scientists, engineers, and system administrators.
