Abstract
Models can help to understand the performance aspects of a computer system from the software architecture and its configurations, but ease of model creation is critical. A compositional model-building approach is described here, in which component submodels are generated from the scenarios they participate in. Submodel classes are derived from an analysis of behaviour patterns as the scenarios traverse the software components. Then submodels are instantiated and combined in the overall system model. The approach is particularly effective in peer-to-peer systems in which subsystems inherit most of their behaviour from a few shared patterns, termed "behaviour-inheriting peer" (BIP) systems. A model-building algorithm is described, and is demonstrated on a prototype emulator for a network of routers. The emulator, called CGNet, can be configured for its deployment and for traffic patterns and routes. An automatic model-generator uses this information to build a model which represents the overall system configuration. The approach is quite general and can be used to model component-based systems in which the components themselves are created in many configurations.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
