Design patterns, components, and frameworks have been successfully used to build various distributed real-time, and embedded (DRE) systems such as high-performance servers, telecommunication systems, and control systems. An application developer may choose from several approaches to implement a distributed application and the choice of design patterns and their configuration can impact the overall performance of the system. Unlike components, design patterns are often descriptions of a programming approach and need to be reified for each application. However, some core pattern implementations can often be reused across applications, if they can be correctly configured to meet application requirements. Currently, there is no general way to quantify the performance of components and design pattern implementations across various dimensions such as throughput, response time, and scalability. The overall performance of applications that are composed from pre-coded components and patterns can be inferred using analytical techniques by modeling the behavior of the individual components. In particular, while we know from experience that patterns exhibit various tradeoffs in terms of performance and complexity; we would like to explore these tradeoffs in a formal way. Toward this goal, we make the following contributions in this thesis: 1) we develop analytical models for various design patterns using queuing models, 2) we present a technique to analyze the performance of combinations of design patterns as observed in real-world applications, and 3) we validate the models using empirical measurements.
