Different approaches differ in their modeling expressiveness and accuracy, on the one hand, and their modeling overhead and costs, on the other hand. Considering a representative set of established approaches, we analyze the semantic gaps between them as well as the trade-offs in using them; we further provide guidelines for selecting the right approach suitable for a given scenario.enAnalysis of the trade-offs in different modeling approaches for performance prediction of software systemsText/Conference Paper1617-5468
