Does Maths play a vital role in Performance Testing

Most of you must be puzzled to know Maths (Statistics) plays a vital role in Performance Testing. Yes, we must accept the fact that performance tester should use mathematical knowledge to conduct effective performance testing activity.


Slowly , (i mean it took a long time for us to understand and appreciate that mathematical knowledge is required for Performance testing) we started appreciating the fact that - a new strategical move is there in Performance testing which is nothing but the use of more & more analytical approaches to model the system more realistically and to predict the system performance for varying higher loads.


I would like to share this paper - A strategical move towards Analytical modelling with you. This paper will help you to appreciate the importance and relevance of analytical approaches for effective performance engineering activities. I prepared this paper for STEPIN 2008.

Capacity Planning - An ITIL Way

I prepared a paper for QAI - ITSM conference. Though it was not selected for the conference, just thought of sharing that paper with you.

This paper will provide you the glimpse of what is ITIL , what is ITSM , What is Capacity Planning, who to assure 100% system availability through effective capacity planning and how to do effective Capacity Planning.
