Course Overview
The objective of this lecture is to introduce the art of perfomance-related modeling of complex distributed systems. We will use worst-case assumptions in order to obtain robust results.

Exercise Sheets
We strongly recommend you to work on the exercises, since they are crucial to get a good grasp on math-heavy lectures.
We recommend to go to the exercises fully prepared, meaning: you should be able to present your solutions to the other students on the blackboard.
