ABSTRACT
Two interrelated sessions will address the technology of computer system performance measurement and evaluation from both the point of view of a user (computer management) and the point of view of the developer of methodologies. The first session will deal with various uses of monitoring devices and data in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of a computer installation, as practiced in operating computer centers today.
In the second session, recent methodological developments and their implications for performance evaluation will be described. Following the second session, a panel of speakers from both sessions will discuss the major problems and potentials of performance measurement with a view toward future directions. During the panel discussion emphasis will be on interaction with the audience.

Computer Performance Evaluation Methodology
The quantitative evaluation of computer performance is needed during the entire life cycle of a computer system. We survey the major quantitative methods used in computer performance evaluation, focusing on post-1970 developments and emphasizing trends ...
SIGIR/SIGARCH non-numeric processing and computer architecture (Panel Session)
ACM '75: Proceedings of the 1975 annual conferenceIn recent years increased emphasis has been given to the solution of non-numeric processing problems using novel computer architectures. These architectures have included associative memories and processors distributed logic devices front end and back ...
Trends in high performance graphic systems(Panel Session)
SIGGRAPH '80: Proceedings of the 7th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniquesAccompanying the rapid development of integrated circuit fabrication technology has been a parallel, but slower, development of IC design techniques and systems. Recent approaches to IC design enable individual designers to consider developing their own ...
