A Misleading Performance Measure
1999Managers, financial analysts and academics all agree that the performance of a business system cannot be judged by a single measure and that it requires a variety of criteria. In the literature this has found expression in a bewildering array of techniques under the general umbrella of ‘multi-criteria decision making’, or MCDM for short, the purpose of

HUBNET performance measurement
IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 1988Media-access delays in HUBNET, a high-performance local area network, are examined. An experimental technique for loading such a network with data up to 97.5% of its nominal bit rate is described. The results of a series of measurements of the packet-access delay in a network operating at loads up to 87.5% of capacity are presented.

The Measurement of Driver Performance
Ergonomics, 1972Four subjects drove the same car over a predetermined route with approximately ten replications each. Measurements of driver performance were derived from data collected photographically. Individual patterns of behaviour were identified and measured. A hypothesis is proposed whereby a driver's performance may be specified.

Measuring and evaluating performance
ACM SIGMETRICS Performance Evaluation Review, 1980The subject of system performance measurement and evaluation has undergone as many generations of changes as the systems themselves. The problem of what to measure and evaluate is complicated by the fact that computing and communications, having become technically similar (digital), will undergo further fusion.

VuSystem performance measurements
1995In this paper I discuss some performance measurements made of the VuSystem, a programming system for the software-based processing of audio and video data. The VuSystem is designed to run on ordinary Unix workstations with no specific support for the manipulation of multimedia data. Measurements made of processing times of representative filter modules
