you may have a plan that’s working properly — and be asking the wrong question altogether. Without any measurable outcomes, consider the several key metrics you discuss amongst your team, department or organization. Use these as the baseline metrics to measure your business against...
In the above system with a directional coupler, a vector network analyzer (VNA) can be used to measure the S-parameters of the system and determine the VSWR value from the reflection coefficient and input impedance. If you’re not a fan of S-parameters, there is a simpler measurement that...
The ratio of work output to input is used as a measure of efficiency in many areas of physics and engineering. Researchers find it useful to describe the percentage of products and consumables for a process to determine how to conserve energy, power, or other limited quantities. Determining the...
At the most basic level, productivity is a measure of output per unit of time. While output is a good measure of productivity for some workers, it’s not the best for most employees. A better way to measure employee productivity is to measure business results or outcomes, in addition to ...
In a nutshell, efficiency is the amount of output your process delivers as a function of the input you use. We can explore this a little further and understand how to measure efficiency and identify the elements of it, as well as how you might go about increasing the efficiency of your ...
There are three keys to measure and improve performance, when what you’re trying to measure keeps changing.We need a certain amount of stability in order to get an improvement in something. If the world was pure chaos, there’d be no point trying. And if the world was pure certainty, ...
There are lots of Instructables on how to use microcontrollers to measure signal frequency. Yawn." But wait, there is a novelty in this one: I describe a method of measuring frequencies muchhigherthan a microcontroller (MCU) can bearandthe signal's duty cycle - all at the same time!
Unlike a function such as sales, where a system-level metric of dollars earned or deals closed could be used to measure the work of both teams and individuals, software development is collaborative in a distinctive way that requires different lenses. For instance, while deployment ...
Harvard Business School, employers should develop performance measurements that alert management to emerging issues and are related to the key drivers of business outcomes. You can develop metrics to measure employee productivity once you fully understand the job function and the outputs of the position...
And to do that effectively, you need to measure time… Thankfully performance.now continues to work in Node.js. Java In Java you want to use System.nanoTime: long start = System.nanoTime(); // … long elapsed = System.nanoTime() - startTime; I have seen claims that System.nano...
