A feature analysis of performance evaluation texts

Published: 01 December 1979 Publication History

Abstract

Computer performance analysis, whether it be for design, selection or improvement, has a large body of literature to draw upon. It is surprising, however, that few texts exist on the subject. The purpose of this paper is to provide a feature analysis of the four major texts suitable for professional and academic purposes.
