There is a growing interest over the last decades in the field of autonomous island grids that is driven mainly by climate reasons. The common objective among the members of the European Union (EU) is the increase of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) penetration in the energy mixture, as well as turning the grid into a smart grid. Consequently, more and more state-of-the-art solutions are being proposed for the electricity generation and the optimization of the energy system management, taking advantage of innovations in all energy related sectors. The evaluation of all available solutions requires quantitative assessment, through the adoption of representative Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for the projects that are related to smart grid development in isolated energy systems, providing the relevant stakeholders with a useful comparison among the proposed solutions. The evaluation approach that is described in this paper emphasizes the role of the various stakeholder groups who face the proposed solutions by different points of view. Apart from the domains of interest that are also observed in previous approaches, the proposed list also contains a set of legal KPIs, since the regulatory framework can either represent a serious barrier or grant a strong incentive for the implementation of state-of-the-art energy technology and grid management solutions in different countries.

ESO’s mission is to enable front-line research in astrophysics by operating and maintaining and a wide range of world-class telescopes and state-of-the-art instruments. Various key performance indicators are used to understand whether ESO is achieving these ambitious goals. In order to assist the ESO Management, the Library builds and maintains the Telescope Bibliography (telbib). telbib provides insights into the performance of ESO’s facilities and helps to understand publishing trends among the user community. This paper will highlight some use cases and recently added enhancements.

SQL Server Reporting Services is a way to analyze data, create reports using the indicators and gauges. Indicators are minimal gauges that convey the state of a single data value at a glance, and most are used to represent the state of Key Performance Indicators. Manage and harmonize the performance of an institution's educational institutions, especially universities with the performance of individuals or resources, no doubt is one of the essential elements for the success of an entity of the institution. Integrate the performance of an educational institution with individual performance is not an easy process, and therefore required a systematic approach to manage it. Implementation of a strategic management system based Balanced Scorecard can be used as a performance measurement system that will continuously monitor the successful implementation of the strategy of any public educational institution and measure the performance of its resources in a comprehensive and balanced, not the quantity but the emphasis is more concerned with the quality, so the performance of educational institutions at any time can be known clearly. Contribution of Key Performance Indicators to manage and harmonize the performance of any public institution is a solution in providing information to realize the extent of work that has set targets, identify and monitor measures of success, of course, with performance indicators show a clear, specific and measurable.

Three levels of planning can be distinguished in grassland farming: strategic, tactical and operational. The purpose of strategic planning is to achieve a sustainable long-term fit of the farm business with its physical, social and financial environment. In pastoral farming, this essentially means developing plans that maximise and best match pasture growth with animal demand, while generating sufficient income to maintain or enhance farm resources and improvements, and attain personal and financial goals. Strategic plans relate to the whole farm business and are focused on the means to achieve future needs. They should be routinely (at least annually) reviewed and monitored for effectiveness through key performance indicators (e.g., Economic Farm Surplus) that enable progress toward goals to be measured in a timely and cost-effective manner. Failure to link strategy with control is likely to result in unfulfilled plans. Keywords: management, performance
