Cloud computing systems' performance is still a central focus of research for determining optimal resource utilization. Running several existing benchmarks simultaneously serves to acquire performance information from specific cloud system resources. However, the complexity of monitoring the existing performance of computing systems is a challenge requiring an efficient and interactive user directing performance-monitoring system. In this paper, we propose an effective multivariate control framework for monitoring cloud systems performance. The proposed framework utilizes the hardware cloud systems performance metrics, collects and displays the performance measurements in terms of meaningful graphics, stores the graphical information in a database, and provides the data on-demand without requiring a third party software. We present performance metrics in terms of CPU usage, RAM availability, number of cloud active machines, and number of running processes on the selected machines that can be monitored at a high control level by either using a cloud service customer or a cloud service provider. The experimental results show that the proposed framework is reliable, scalable, precise, and thus outperforming its counterparts in the field of monitoring cloud performance.

Although there have been many efforts to reduce accidents on construction sites, such accidents continue to occur. New technologies have recently been developed to improve safety and their performance needs to be evaluated to determine their suitability prior to the application. The assessment for safety performance mainly is conducted depending on qualitative and subjective judgment of supervisors. However, there are rarely proper approaches to assess such qualitative measures. Therefore, we propose a fuzzy-based approach to assessing the performance of a new technology. The assessment of a new technology, called a mobile detector (MD), was carried out as a case study. The output is compared with those by a numerical simulation. As a result, the fuzzy-based performance assessment is shown to be appropriate for this evaluation.

Indicators measuring performance and the level of informatization of construction companies have recently been developed. Construction companies' investment in informatization, however, is still relatively low compared to that of other companies in different industries, since it has been difficult in quantifying the effect of informatization on total performance. This study, therefore, conducted an industry survey using indicators provided by previous studies, and used them to calculate performance and informatization indices for construction companies. Finally, it suggested a quantitative analysis of the effect of informatization on these companies' performance.

As the entities participating Grid become larger, performance requirement for the LDAP-based GIS(Grid Information Service) goes beyond that provided by a stand-alone single LDAP server. This entails the exploration of distributed LDAP systems. This paper presents the performance evaluation respectively for a distribution-based and a replication-based LDAP model. The analysis is based on an analytic performance model for each distributed system which is obtained by applying the M/M/1 queuing model. The performance evaluation made to these analytic models reveals that the distribution-based and the replication-based model show a significant tradeoff in their performance with respect to the system size as well as the amount of system load.

This study is to apply of AHP to the performance management of university organization. Especially, in the present study, the authors modeled performance evaluations for S university administration hierarchically and analyzed the weights of those. The domains of performance evaluations were divided in five domains: strategy, resource management, process, finance management, and customer management, referred to the viewpoints of BSC. The results of analysis revealed that strategy was the most important element of evaluation in the first stage and except for strategy and finance management which consist of the single element of evaluation respectively in the second stage, the efficiency of administration supporting service was the important element of evaluation. The weights of performance evaluations, however, revealed in different as the class of position. Finally this study showed that the weights of performance evaluations computed in the present study can be used as those of evaluation indices for S university administration.

Current codes design the buildings based on life safety criteria. In a performance-based design (PBD) approach, decisions are made based on demands, such as target displacement and performance of structure in use. This type of design prevents loss of life but does not limit damages or maintain functionality. As a newly developed method, resilience-based design (RBD) aims to maintain functionality of buildings and provide liveable conditions after strong ground movement. In this paper, the seismic performance of plain and strengthened RC frames (an eight-story and two low-rise) is evaluated. In order to evaluate earthquake performance of the frames, the performance points of the frames are calculated by the capacity spectrum method (CSM) of ATC-40. This method estimates earthquake-induced deformation of an inelastic system using a reduced response spectrum. Finally, the seismic performances of the frames are evaluated and the results are compared with a resilience-based design criterion.

The recent emergence of new Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) has resulted in a gradual improvement in the performance of positioning services. This paper verifies the degree of improvement in positioning performance of Assisted-GNSS (A-GNSS) receivers using assistance information compared to standalone-GNSS receivers that do not use assistance information in various urban environments in Korea. For this purpose, field tests are performed in various urban and indoor environments in Korea. The assistance information is provided by u-blox's AssistNow Online and low-cost commercial receivers are used for mobile station receivers. Through experiments, the Time to First Fix (TTFF), acquisition sensitivity, and position accuracy performance improvement are analyzed. The results of the experiments show that using assistance data improved the performance in all experiment locations, and, in particular, a significant performance improvement in terms of TTFF.

Incentive/Disincentive (I/D) contract is designed for minimizing any disruption of traffic flow in road construction projects. I/D contracting projects have been evaluated with regard to time and cost performance in various states, more than 35 states. However, construction project managers and planners have little understanding of the project factors that affect the project time and cost performance of highway construction projects using I/D regulations. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to find factors that affect I/D project success or failure to improve the decision-making process for the implementation of I/D projects. In order to achieve the objectives of this research, the researchers collected I/D road construction project data from FDOT and performed evaluation for each collected project. Then, project data analysis to identify key factors that affect I/D project performance was performed. In conclusion, five significant factors for project time performance and six significant factors for project cost perfornace were identified and summarized.

Web services show a rapid evolution and integration to meet the increased users' requirements. Thus, web services undergo updates and may have performance degradation due to undetected faults in the updated versions. Due to these faults, many performances and regression anomalies in web services may occur in real-world scenarios. This paper proposed applying the deep learning model and innovative explainable framework to detect performance and regression anomalies in web services. This study indicated that upper bound and lower bound values in performance metrics provide us with the simple means to detect the performance and regression anomalies in updated versions of web services. The explainable deep learning method enabled us to decide the precise use of deep learning to detect performance and anomalies in web services. The evaluation results of the proposed approach showed us the detection of unusual behavior of web service. The proposed approach is efficient and straightforward in detecting regression anomalies in web services compared with the existing approaches.

Various project delivery methods have been utilized by owners over the years to maximize project performance. The design-build delivery method is being increasingly used due to the advantages it can offer to an engineering construction industry. Numerous studies have advocated the use of design/build over the traditional design/bid/build delivery approach. This study represents comprehensive analysis of 40 projects from the construction industry and shows that design/build method may not provide all the benefits to project performance. This study found timesaving was a definitive advantage of design/build project delivery, but the positive effects of cost changes was not convincing. Based on the results of the study, the project management expertise and experience of the contractor may have a greater impact on project performance outcomes than focusing on project delivery strategy only.
