This
book constitutes the proceedings of the 18th International GI/ITG Conference on
Measurement, Modelling and Evaluation of Computing Systems and Dependability
and Fault Tolerance, MMB & DFT 2016, held in Münster, Germany, in April
2016.





The 12 full papers and 3 short papers included in this volume were
carefully reviewed and selected from 23 submissions. The papers deal with the
fields of performance evaluation, dependability, and fault-tolerance of
computer and communication systems. A relatively new topic of smart grids is
also covered.
