摘要：Two new performance indices (PIV - Performance Index Vector and WPIV ¨C Weighted
Performance Index Vector) are presented in this article. Those indices to evaluate heterogeneous
computing systems are based on a Euclidian metric. Aiming to maximize the use of the machines, the
proposed indices are a combination of several usual indices and the results of their evaluation through a
simulator show an appropriate behavior for different kinds of applications.
