Benchmarking helps in organizational gap analysis by comparing it with some predefined standard bench marks which instead allow process‘s system, capability to increase to the maximum level. Conglomerated with Ontology, it provides a source of precisely defined terms that can create a consensus of shared understanding concerning the domain of discourse pertaining to a certain domain of knowledg...

Organizations without strategy are like a ships without a compass.

For developing and benchmarking autonomous logistic processes, dynamic models are essential. The paper investigates two different modelling approaches regarding their abilities to describe an exemplary scenario – an autonomously controlled shop floor. A discrete-event simulation model is compared to a continuous System Dynamics model. An autonomous control strategy is developed and its effectiv...

The New Zealand Government is strongly focused on better, smarter, faster public services delivering what the customer needs. Significant change is occurring, including machinery of government changes. To support this, many departments are re-evaluating their strategies and their use of KPIs, benchmarking and the balanced scorecard. These tools, used appropriately, provide insight to track stra...

Network computing seeks to utilize the aggregate resources of many networked computers to solve a single problem. In so doing it is often possible to obtain supercomputer performance from an inexpensive local area network. The drawback is that network computing is complicated and error prone when done by hand, especially if the computers have diierent operating systems and data formats and are ...

This paper describes the benchmarking of a HW/SWcoverification design strategy. The benchmark results were the base for making a principal verification decision for an already ongoing project at Siemens AG, Public Communication Network Group. The intention for this benchmark was to verify whether commercial available coverification tools can handle the design complexity of an embedded system co...

Regression testing is an important part of software quality assurance. We work to extend regression testing to include regression benchmarking, which applies benchmarking to detect regressions in performance. Given the specific requirements of regression benchmarking, many contemporary benchmarks are not directly usable in regression benchmarking. To overcome this, we present a case for designi...

We introduce a new native code compiler for Curry codenamed Sprite. Sprite is based on the Fair Scheme, a compilation strategy that provides instructions for transforming declarative, non-deterministic programs of a certain class into imperative, deterministic code. We outline salient features of Sprite, discuss its implementation of Curry programs, and present benchmarking results. Sprite is t...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the current level of best manufacturing practices in Malaysian ISO 9000 certified small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Design/methodology/approach: The authors conducted a survey on 270 ISO 9000 certified manufacturing SMEs. Based on an extensive search of literature on performance requirements, eight areas were identified. Thus, the question...
