4.6.3 System Workload and Performance Profile


Continuing the System Workload and Performance Profile case
study introduced in Section 3.3.3.5 and continued in Section
6.6.3, Presentation Graphics was used to produce a printer
plot of the forecast of multiprocessor CPU busy that was
developed.  Figures 4-14 and 4-15 show the control parameters
used to produce the report.  Figure 4-16 shows the printer
plot produced by Presentation Graphics.
