Abstract
Why do some types of evaluation use prevail in certain contexts and not in others? The aim of this article is to advance knowledge about organisational factors of evaluation use, that is, determinants of evaluation use grounded in organisational theories. We critically review existing frameworks of organisational factors of evaluation use, highlighting key differences between them and pointing out discrepancies with empirical insights. We discuss the merits of two potential areas for future research that can help concretise theoretical stances: considering organisational legitimacy as a potential direct determinant of evaluation use and incorporating a dynamic perspective in organisational frameworks of evaluation use.
期刊介绍:
Performance Evaluation functions as a leading journal in the area of modeling, measurement, and evaluation of performance aspects of computing and communication systems. As such, it aims to present a balanced and complete view of the entire Performance Evaluation profession. Hence, the journal is interested in papers that focus on one or more of the following dimensions:
-Define new performance evaluation tools, including measurement and monitoring tools as well as modeling and analytic techniques
-Provide new insights into the performance of computing and communication systems
-Introduce new application areas where performance evaluation tools can play an important role and creative new uses for performance evaluation tools.
More specifically, common application areas of interest include the performance of:
-Resource allocation and control methods and algorithms (e.g. routing and flow control in networks, bandwidth allocation, processor scheduling, memory management)
-System architecture, design and implementation
-Cognitive radio
-VANETs
-Social networks and media
-Energy efficient ICT
-Energy harvesting
-Data centers
-Data centric networks
-System reliability
-System tuning and capacity planning
-Wireless and sensor networks
-Autonomic and self-organizing systems
-Embedded systems
-Network science
