Abstract

Mobile systems, where both computing nodes and software components can dynamically change their location, are already a reality, thanks to technological advances in several related fields. The high variability and heterogeneity of these systems raises severe performance problems, thus requiring a careful planning of any performance validation activity concerning these systems. This paper reviews some approaches that have been proposed to this end, presenting them within a general framework aimed at supporting a systematic approach to the validation of non functional attributes. In this framework we emphasize that one of the key points for the actual and effective introduction of non-functional attributes validation since the early design phases is the definition of model-based transformations from design-oriented models to analysis-oriented models.
