Designing hardware/software systems in the traditional way we clearly separate methods for the functional design and performance evaluation. Beside many merits the well known insularity-problem is one of the consequences. Therefore, in system engineering we see a clear trend towards an integral treatment of both aspects.We briefly summarize research results obtained during the last decade by embedding stochastic processes into process algebras, an advanced concept for the design of parallel and distributed systems. The central objective of these Stochastic Process Algebras is the modular and hierarchical modelling and analysis of complex systems. A general introduction and related references from different research groups may be found in [1, 2].
