This paper presents a tool, the Performance Model Manager, which addresses the complexity of the construction and management of a set of Functional Performance Models on a computing server in a Grid environment. The operation of the tool and the features it implements to achieve this goal are described. Integration of Functional Performance Models with a GridRPC middleware, using the tool{\textquoteright}s interfaces is illustrated. Finally, an example application is used to demonstrate the construction of the models and experiments that show the benefit of using the detailed models are presented.
