Several recent articles speak to the problems involved in computer system performance evaluation in general and performance prediction for system selection in particular. The interest in this general area is growing in an almost exponential manner as demonstrated by the number of references per year for the period 1965 to 1969 listed in a recent bibliography on Computer Performance Analysis by Miller:3 6, 9, 28, 32, 42. However, while there is considerable general discussion in this referenced literature on the relative merits of benchmarking as a technique for system evaluation and selection, there are virtually no documented case studies of benchmarking for third generation, multiprogramming oriented system selection.
