-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Symposium on Software Performance (SSP) brings together researchers 
and practitioners interested in software performance, where 
"performance" is understood both in a classical sense as “the amount of 
useful work accomplished by a software system compared to the time and 
resources used”, as well as in a broader sense as "the manner in which 
or the efficiency with which a software system reacts or fulfills its 
intended purpose". The scope of SSP spans measurement, modeling, 
benchmark design, and run-time management. The focus is both on 
classical performance metrics such as response time, throughput, and 
resource utilization, as well as on the relationship of such metrics to 
other software quality attributes including but not limited to 
scalability, elasticity, (energy) efficiency, dependability (in terms of 
availability and reliability), resilience, security, and privacy. Topics 
of interest include the design of metrics, benchmarks, and tools for 
quantitative system evaluation and analysis, as well as the development 
of methodologies, techniques and tools for modeling, measurement, load 
testing, monitoring, profiling, workload characterization, and run-time 
management of software systems with respect to the mentioned quality 
attributes.

The symposium is organized by the three established research groups 
Descartes, Kieker, and Palladio; thus this symposium also serves as a 
joint community meeting. Descartes' focus are techniques and tools for 
engineering self-aware computing systems designed for maximum 
dependability and efficiency. Kieker is a well‐established tool and 
approach for monitoring software performance of complex, large, and 
distributed IT systems. Palladio is a likewise‐established tool and 
approach for modeling architectures of IT systems and for simulating 
quality properties, such as for example performance or reliability metrics.
