Measurement, Modelling and Evaluation of Dependable Computer and Communication Systems

Thisbook constitutes the proceedings of the 18th International GI/ITG Conference onMeasurement, Modelling and Evaluation of Computing Systems and Dependabilityand Fault Tolerance, MMB & DFT 2016, held in Munster, Germany, in April2016.The 12 full papers and 3 short papers included in this volume werecarefully reviewed and selected from 23 submissions. The papers deal with thefields of performance evaluation, dependability, and fault-tolerance ofcomputer and communication systems. A relatively new topic of smart grids isalso covered.
