Therefore, the first step in conducting a performance evaluation study is to clearly state the goals of the project and obtain a global definition of the current environment based on these goals.

This paper presents three new systematic approaches for computing coefficient matrices of the Heffron-Phillips multi-machine model (K1, …, K6). The amount of computations needed for conventional and three new approaches are compared by counting number of multiplications and divisions. The advantages of new approaches are: (1) their computation burdens are less than 73 percent of that of convent...
