Performance analysis of an XForms framework with the main focus on profiling by example of Chiba

By Lars Windauer

Diploma Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Computer Science - General, grade: 1.0, language: English, abstract: The goal of this thesis is to analyse a common XForms framework (Chiba) with the focus on profiling for performance inadequacies and to fix them if possible. A prototype of a largely automated performance measurement setup to underpin the analysis and the verification of enhancements has been designed and implemented. The thesis starts with a theoretical part to specify terms & methodologies. Before the paper comes to its practical part the analysed project is introduced. Afterwards a practical performance analysis from the first steps to the narrow of the analysed project is exemplarily described. In detail, chapter 1 Performance & Profiling elaborates how to quantify and profile performance in theory. Chapter 2 Methods introduces various methods to analyse performance. XForms and the analysed product Chiba are presented in chapter 3 XForms / Chiba Fundamentals. The implemented performance analysis is described in chapter 4 Performance Analysis Iteration and chapter 5 Tuning XForms Actions. The Performance Analysis Iteration focuses on the design and implementation of tests to analyse and validate potential performance shortages, while Tuning XForms Actions illustrates how profiling techniques can be utilised not only to analyse but also to enhance a validated shortage. Finally - in chapter 6 Closing - the results of the analysis and the enhancements are reconsidered.
