ICPE enhances the experience of attending researchers and industry practitioners through a Tutorial Track comprising tutorials presented by leading scientists and practitioners in areas of relevance for the ICPE community. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, performance measurement, performance modeling, benchmarking, and run-time performance management of complex systems of all types.

Proposals are sought for tutorials at introductory, intermediate, and advanced skill-levels, that span either a full day (6 hours, two breaks included), or a half-day (3 hours, one break included).

The ICPE tutorials will be organised on …(dates TBA)
