Abstract
The performance of a multiprocessor system with a single bus is studied by analyzing the amount of memory and bus interference. Queueing and Markov theories are used to analyze simplified models of increasing complexity and accuracy. Simulation is used to validate the analysis and to compare the obtained results with a more accurate model for which no analytical solution is found. The key result of the paper is to demonstrate that simple approximate models provide a lower bound on the system performance in the case studied. It seems therefore convenient to use such simplified models in the design and in the evaluation of multi-microprocessor systems.
