SSRN Electronic Journal, 2009 This paper develops a new approach that controls for commonalities in actively managed investment fund returns when measuring their performance. It is well-known that many investment funds may systematically load on common priced factors omitted from popular models, exhibit similarities in their choices of specific stocks and industries, or vary their ...

Benchmarking, benchmarking processes
1996Many managers strongly believe that successful benchmarking exercises are only the result of choosing carefully the right methodology. The process of benchmarking, however, although being a tool, is very difficult to apply. It challenges the existing culture of work and scientific practices and methodologies in place.

Benchmarking the benchmarking models
Benchmarking: An International Journal, 2008PurposeA review of benchmarking literature revealed that there are different types of benchmarking and a plethora of benchmarking process models. In some cases, a model has been uniquely developed for performing a particular type of benchmarking. This poses the following problems: it can create confusion among the users as to whether they should use ...

Abstract : Benchmarks can be useful in estimating the performance of a computer system when it is not possible or practical to test out the new system with an actual workload. In the field of high performance computing, some common benchmarks are the various versions of Linpack, the various versions of the Numerical Aerospace Simulation Systems ...

Proceedings of the 11th annual international ACM/IEEE joint conference on Digital libraries, 2011
Experimental evaluation and comparison of techniques, algorithms or complete systems is a crucial requirement to assess the practical impact of research results. The quality of published experimental results is usually limited due to several reasons such as: limited time, unavailability of standard benchmarks or shortage of computing resources ...

Annals of Tourism Research, 2002
This research has been designed as a case study on Mallorca and Turkey to achieve two objectives. The first included the investigation of the methods used to identify performance gaps between these destinations. The next was to examine the extent to which the benchmarking approach could be applied to tourism destinations.

Benchmarking for Craniosynostosis
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2007The quality of care for craniofacial malformations is thought to be improved through benchmarking. The benchmarking process identifies the best practice within the participating centers and leads to new protocols and guidelines, which are implemented by the participants. It also allows for comparison of outcome between the various centers.
