Abstract:
1. An execution condition setting support method for supporting setting of an execution condition of a program to be executed in a computer system having a particular hardware configuration, including a first parameter affecting an execution performance of said program and which is not designated by a user, the method including: a step of preliminarily gathering execution performance values of said program measured by executing said program under each combined execution condition that is a combination of each of multiple first parameter values selected from possible values for said first parameter and each of multiple second parameter values selected from possible values for a second parameter which affects the execution performance of said program and which is designated by a user, and a detecting step of detecting based on said combination, a group including at least one of said first parameter values which maximizes an assurance value of execution performance, out of said multiple first parameter values, wherein, said assurance value is calculated based on a mean value and a standard deviation of execution performance values of said program with respect to each of said second parameter values, assuming a combination between each of the first parameter values in said group and each of said multiple second parameter values as the execution condition of said program, and outputting the detected group including at least one of said first parameter values as a recommended group of multiple first parameter values.
