to be assured, with exceptionally high efficiency

5. Performance Engineering
• Identify which components and code pathways are
performance-critical, and which are not
• Expose implicit assumptions that would otherwise become
performance hazards
• Establish performance norms so that customer and end-user
expectations can be set correctly, avoiding post-deployment
disagreement and disappointment
• Quantify trade-offs between cost and performance
• Identify scalability limits

8. Example client outcome
• Predictable Network Solutions Ltd was Tier 1 subcontractor on
US Department of Defense Future Combat Systems program
– the only one with an annual turnover under $1bn
• Our analysis showed that system goals were unachievable
• Program cancelled after only $30Bn spent
• This saved the US taxpayer $300Bn
