Zusammenfassung:	A method for optimizing performance of a drilling process by an automated control system for drilling, comprising obtaining a measure of performance for each drilling activity of a set of drilling activities for the drilling process; calculating an activity performance index for each drilling activity by obtaining reference data for each drilling activity, comparing the measures of performance for each drilling activity to the reference data for the particular drilling activity, calculating the activity performance index for each drilling activity based on the comparison; generating a drilling process performance index based on the activity performance indexes; comparing, for each of the drilling activities, a configuration of one or more drilling parameters to a reference configuration of drilling parameters associated with the reference data for the particular drilling activity; and adjusting the configuration of one or more drilling parameters associated with one or more drilling activities based on the comparison.
