That is (using the high level language of the programming reference manua] --- not COBOL) compile, execute, log times, and publish profile times for selected software operations Analogy is the hardware timing for a batch of test cards through a card reader from which operation timing tables and formulas can be derived. Timing data from software elements used in an appropriate simulation model can then provide a meaningful way to examine alternatives~ These efforts are currently under development.
