Fellner, Ivan, Racko, Ivan, Racek, Milos, Fabian, Karol, Long, Darrell; A COMPARISON OF TWO IMPLEMENTATIONS OF THE TOKEN RING PRIORITY FUNCTION: System performance is strongly influenced by the quality of its implementations. We describe four ways of evaluating the performance of two implementations of the priority mechanism used in the Token Ring local area network. We use various methods for comparing the small priority machine's differences and show how a simplified comparison can lead to bad results. With connection to the evaluation complexity, we also consider the simulation cost of the implementation process. [Text] (1.33)
