Abstract :
Performance modelers typically use Markov models associated with their analysis of computer systems. This tutorial introduces additional probabilistic models (e.g., competing risks, proportional hazards) and the associated statistical methods that are commonly used in reliability engineering and biostatistics to complement the Markov models.
