Approaching Cloud Computing Performance
IEEE Cloud Computing, 2018Performance in a cloud computing environment is a complex topic. The way that IaaS and PaaS clouds operate is very different from traditional single-tenant on-premises platforms.

An Approach to Application Performance Tuning
2010Current hardware trends place increasing pressure on programmers and tools to optimize scientific code. Numerous tools and techniques exist, but no single tool is a panacea; instead, an assortment of performance tuning utilities are necessary to best utilize scarce resources (e.g., bandwidth, functional units, cache).

Effect of Context on Performance Approach Orientation
The American Journal of Psychology, 2012We proposed and tested a theoretical model that argues that different work contexts influence the relationship between performance approach orientation and work performance. Across three studies and three different types of work performance, results consistently supported a theorized interaction between performance approach orientation and rewarding ...

Performance of Belgian hospitals: A frontier approach
Health Economics, 1995AbstractThe purpose of the paper is to measure and to compare performance of Belgian hospitals during the year 1991. In order to measure hospitals' efficiency, we estimate a resource function which is defined as the relationship between medical fees incurred in the treatment of a patient and the patient's pathology.

A New Approach to Evaluating Performance
The Journal of Continuing Education in Nursing, 2016A leadership task is evaluating the performance of individuals for organizational fit. Traditional approaches have included leader–subordinate reviews, self-review, and peer review. A new approach is evolving in team-based organizations, introduced in this article. J Contin Educ Nurs. 2016;47(9):393–394.

Performance of Conglomerate Firms: A Portfolio Approach
The Journal of Finance, 1976gers. Most have dealt with highly diversified firms or those which have been heavily involved in conglomerate mergers and acquisitions. Methodological approaches have differed, as have the conclusions regarding the benefits (or lack thereof) accompanying mergers and acquisitions.

An Approach to Performance Evaluation Programming
2017 19th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing (SYNASC), 2017We present an experimental concurrent programming language LPEP which supports performance evaluation programming. An LPEP program is a collection of modules which are executed concurrently. The structure of an LPEP program is similar to the structure of a Continuous Time Markov Chain (CTMC) model expressed in the PRISM language (of the PRISM ...

An approach to performance evaluation of software architectures
Proceedings of the 1st international workshop on Software and performance, 1998expected performance of a software architecture. The method automatically derives a performance evaluation model, based on a Queueing Network Model, from a software architecture specification formally described in CHAM (CHemical Abstract Machine).

An approach for on-line performance certification
Proceedings International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium, 2004Adaptive resource management middleware enables a pool of computing and network resources to be allocated at run-time. This allows systems to adapt to processing demands that depend on dynamic environments, and allows systems to reconfigure so that critical functions continue to be provided when some hardware components have failed. This paper presents

A Performance Approach to Mobile Security
2016 IEEE 24th International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems (MASCOTS), 2016Signaling related attacks, such as the signaling storms, threaten the stability of mobile networks and are a frequent cause of multiple service degradations and even several network outages. This paper proposes a performance evaluation approach to the problem using techniques from probability theory, in general Markov Chains and queueing networks.
