Computer performance management: Conceptual considerations from an operations research perspective
Abstract A conceptual linkage between computer performance management and the generalized OR model is proposed. This approach seeks to enlarge the managerial perspective so that more effective decisions can be developed and implemented relative to enhancing computer system operating behavior. Basic considerations in computer system performance are mapped to the generalized features of the classical OR model. The result suggests that increased understanding associated with managerial responsibilities in improving performance can be realized.
