Performance is critical in today’s software systems—especially when user experience and retention are on the line. Companies invest heavily in performance testing and monitoring, yet issues still slip through: slow response times, frustrated users, and expensive firefighting measures, which boils down to negative business impact. At REALISE Lab, we focus on identifying these challenges early and designing methods to ensure systems stay fast, scalable, and reliable under pressure. We did this by engaging in academic and industrial collaborations.

• We provided a tool that leverages static analysis to identify bad practices from a benchmarking used in performance testing.
• We proposed an approach for detecting performance regressions early by propagating component-level anomalies across the architectural model.
• We collaborated with Mozilla to provide a dataset of performance measurements, alerts, and bugs extracted from the Mozilla systems. We believe that this dataset will help researchers and professionals in different performance related areas.
