Abstract
There is a need for a decision making/early selection tool for use in the government computer selection process. Such early selection tools are critical to the decision maker due to the environment in which the government procurer is forced to operate. The instruction mix sensitivity technique as demonstrated here has the potential to aid the government decision maker in evaluating the performance of a computer prior to the actual existence or availability of that hardware without resorting to costly and time consuming techniques such as simulation or modeling.
