Do Performance Aspirations Matter for Guiding Software Configuration Tuning? [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology (TOSEM), 2023, 2023
Configurable software systems can be tuned for better performance. Leveraging on some Pareto optimizers, recent work has shifted from tuning for a single, time-related performance objective to two intrinsically different objectives that assess distinct performance aspects of the system, each with varying aspirations. Before we design better optimizers,
