Productive performance of cattle in Botswana
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1974A field investigation was undertaken in several areas of Botswana to determine how management, environment and possibly aphosphorosis affected the bodily condition and reproductive performance of range cattle in these areas. Results indicated that poor management, overgrazing and poor watering facilities seriously impaired bodily condition and ...

The chapter starts with the investment ACLEDA Bank made in the financial system to enhance transparency with an innovative pilot project, promoted by the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MoEF) to “digitize corruption out of the market”. Other lessons about financial product development—both successes and failures—are presented.

Performance prediction in production environments
Proceedings of the First Merged International Parallel Processing Symposium and Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing, 2002Accurate performance predictions are difficult to achieve for parallel applications executing on production distributed systems. Conventional point-valued performance parameters and prediction models are often inaccurate since they can only represent one point in a range of possible behaviors. The authors address this problem by allowing characteristic

Performance Measures, Efficiency, Productivity
Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2012The paradox of the increased use of imaging without obvious evidence of improved health outcomes has led to calls for payment based on value rather than volume. Measurement of radiologists' performance is a key component of the measurement of value.

Productivity, profitability and financial performance
Industrial and Corporate Change, 2008This work presents a comparative analysis of two crucial dimensions of firms’ performance: profitability and productivity. The characteristics of their empirical distribution and the associated degree of persistence over time are explored through a set of parametric and non-parametric exercises performed on an exhaustive panel of Italian firms, active ...

State Infrastructure and Productive Performance [PDF]
American Economic Review, 1992 The impact of public infrastructure investment on the productive performance of firms has been an important focus of the recent literature on productivity growth. The size of this impact has important implications for policymakers' decisions to invest in public capital, and productivity analysts' evaluation of productivity growth fluctuations and ...

Geometrical performance of the VEGETATION products
IGARSS 2003. 2003 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37477), 2004VEGETATION data are mainly used for multidate applications, which induces high level geometrical specifications, especially for multitemporal registration. To comply with them, the VEGETATION 1 image location is improved by a systematic use of ground control points.

A Model of Product Development Performance
1998The overriding aim of much product development research is to improve the performance of the Product Development Process (PDP). Yet we seem to know very little of how to measure improved performance or how performance metrics relate. The whole concept of performance as applied to this area is currently without underlying theory and no consensus exists ...

Knowledge in Product and Performance Support
2007The emphasis nowadays on individual information needs and personalization of content as well as the level of complexity involved in some domains necessitates the use of Knowledge Engineering approaches. In particular, product and performance support is a complex and knowledgeintensive domain which despite the advances in the last few years, still ...

Productivity in High-Performance Computing
2008Abstract Productivity is an emerging measure of merit for high-performance computing. While pervasive in application, conventional metrics such as flops fail to reflect the complex interrelationships of diverse factors that determine the overall effectiveness of the use of a computing system.
