Performance Trade-off

Performance Trade-off helps you select the best option, or alternative, among competing objectives, helping you organize and compare key performance indicators in a manner that enables you to make the best decision for your needs."

Performance Trade-off is an analytic and decision support application for users that need to make decisions based on information gleaned from results data .

Performance Trade-off is a dashboard app that lets you:

  • Visualize and compare data from various sources (for example, competing designs of an airframe rib).
  • Analyze design alternatives generated by a simulation process that is created in a Process Composer app.
  • Define requirements (for example, define the maximum weight and peak stresses of the rib.)
  • Given the requirements, select the best alternative (for example, the best alternative might be a compromise between competing requirements, such as strength and weight.)
  • Compare how changes to the requirements affect which design becomes the best alternative (for example, which option is the best if you rank the weight requirements as more important than the strength requirements?)

  • Improve decisions by capturing the input and feedback from decision makers.

Performance Trade-off is a design comparison tool, while the Results Analytics app is a design exploration tool. Since Performance Trade-off data sets are limited to 50 alternatives, use Results Analytics to analyze data sets larger than 50 alternatives.
