The Mercury Environment: A Modeling Tool for Performance and Dependability Evaluation

1 · Felipe · July 7, 2021, midnight
Abstract: It is important to be able to judge the performance or dependability metrics of a system and often we do so by using abstract models even when the system is in the conceptual phase. Evaluating a system by performing measurements can have a high temporal and/or financial cost, which may not be feasible. Mathematical models can provide estimates about system behavior and we need tools supporting different types of formalisms in order to compute desired metrics. The Mercury tool enables a...
