'''Performance Management Work''' ('''PMW''') describes all activities that are necessary to ensure that [[IT performance management|performance]] requirements of application systems (AS) can be met. Therefore, PMW integrates software performance engineering (SPE)<ref name="WoodsideFranks2007"/> and application performance management (APM)<ref name="Menasce2002"/> activities. SPE and APM are part of different lifecycle phases of an AS namely [[system development]] and [[IT operations]]. PMW supports a comprehensive coordination of all SPE and APM activities, which is inevitable due to an increased complexity of AS [[Systems architecture|architectures]].<ref name="BrunnertVoegele2014">{{cite journal|last1=Brunnert|first1=Andreas|last2=Vögele|first2=Christian|last3=Danciu|first3=Alexandru|last4=Pfaff|first4=Matthias|last5=Mayer|first5=Manuel|last6=Krcmar|first6=Helmut|title=Performance Management Work|journal=Business & Information Systems Engineering|volume=6|issue=3|pages=177|year=2014|issn=1867-0202|doi=10.1007/s12599-014-0323-7}}</ref> | '''Performance Management Work''' ('''PMW''') describes all activities that are necessary to ensure that [[IT performance management|performance]] requirements of application systems (AS) can be met.

Therefore, AS have to meet growing functional and non-functional requirements. An essential non-functional quality factor is called ''performance'', which is described by the [[Software metric|metrics]] response times, resource usage and throughput. Such metrics are used to define performance goals. In order to ensure performance of AS, these metrics have to be constantly measured and assessed. | ||
Guaranteeing appropriate performance is a major challenge since AS have evolved to complex [[system of systems]].<ref name="Jamshidi2009"/> Furthermore, different subsystems of AS undergo a continuous [[Systems development life cycle|life cycle]] and lie within the responsibility of different organizations. The resulting complexity requires new approaches for performance management of such system of systems architectures with a multilateral [[IT governance]]. Existing approaches such as SPE or APM focus on certain stages of a life cycle. However, a comprehensive approach is missing, which not only addresses the complexity of systems and organizations but also integrates their life cycles. | Guaranteeing appropriate performance is a major challenge since AS have evolved to complex [[system of systems]].<ref name="Jamshidi2009"/> Furthermore, different subsystems of AS undergo a continuous [[Systems development life cycle|life cycle]] and lie within the responsibility of different organizations.
