Software complex for measuring operating systems’ main functions performance

• Alexey Martyshkin Penza State Technological University

Abstract

This paper describes the software package created by the author for measuring the performance of operating system functions. This work aims to synthesize a software package designed to analyse the execution time of software functions of uniprocessor and multiprocessor operating systems. The package analyses a number of functions of operating systems: mutexes, semaphores, read-write locks, FIFO and PIPE channels, TCP and UDP sockets, context switching, system calls. Unlike analogues, this package is represented by a convenient graphical user interface; the Qt and Qwt libraries are used for its implementation, they have a rich set of widgets, i.e. programs that facilitate access to information. The libraries used are cross-platform, which allows us to make a simpler procedure for transferring applications to different operating systems; smoothing the test results curves is used. In conclusion, the results of test measurements are presented.
