What Does It Mean to "Measure Performance"?
The purpose of much computer science research is to invent algorithms, and generate evidence to convince others that the new methods are worthwhile. All too often, however, the work has no impact, because the supporting evidence does not meet basic standards of rigor or persuasiveness. Here the notion of “experiment” is explored, with reference to our current investigation into distributed text...
متن کاملWhat Does It Mean and How Do We Measure It?
T he paper by Bonow et al' in this issue of Circulation reports important empirical observations on measuring myocardial viability in humans with the potassium analogue thallium-201. After obtaining standard 20'1f exercise and redistribution images, a second dose of 201TI was injected and a third (reinjection) image was obtained beginning 10-15 minutes later. The reinjection images identified v...
متن کاملDoes impedance measure a functional state of the body fat?
The aim was to compare methods of body fat measurement in different BMI groups. An additional aim was to discuss differences reflecting the structural and functional changes of fat tissue. The study group included 130 adult Caucasian women stratified by body mass index (BMI): 18-24.99 (n=30), 25-29.99 (n=26), 30-34.99 (n=33), 35-39.99 (n=30), and BMI>/=40 (n=11). Bioelectrical impedance was per...

Prioritising conservation efforts is therefore critical. With the extinction of species, we lose not only taxonomic diversity but also the ecosystem services they provide and the evolutionary history repre...
