Purpose This conceptual paper presents a proposal for improving performance measurement (PM) system implementation process based on enterprise engineering (EE) guidelines, which gives the sense of completeness. Design/methodology/approach analyzes well-known PM systems organized in two phases: identifying, designing and implementing top-level measures; cascading measures identify appropriate lo...

Process Management Systems (PMSs) are currently more and more used as a supporting tool for cooperative processes in pervasive and highly dynamic situations, such as emergency situations or pervasive health-care. In these scenarios, the environment may change in a way that was not expected so as to prevent processes from being successfully carried out. The frequency and the types of unexpected ...

Several forms of depression are unique to women because of their apparent association with changes in gonadal hormones, which in turn modulate neuroregulatory systems associated with mood and behavior. This review examines the evaluation and treatment of depression that occurs premenstrually, postpartum, or in the perimenopause on the basis of current literature. The serotonergic antidepressant...

the error of inertial navigation systems increase versus time, therefore for achieving higher accuracy specially in long time navigations we have to use an aiding system. global positioning system is the best aiding system in this case. in this paper we first simulate a gps and ins; then simulate tightly integration and finally review adaptation method of kalman filtering a fuzzy adaptive kalma...

In the field of performance measurement, a lot of literature is emerging, which largely focuses on designing performance measurement systems, with few studies on issues in implementation and use of performance measurement systems. The objective of this paper is to study the people related issues surrounding the implementation and use of IT-supported performance measurement system (IT-PMS). Acti...

The Computer Measurement Group, commonly called CMG, is a not for profit, worldwide organization of data processing professionals committed to the measurement and management of computer systems. CMG members are primarily concerned with performance evaluation of existing systems to maximize performance (eg. response time, throughput, etc.) and with capacity management where planned enhancements ...
