Automatic Compiler-Inserted I/O Prefetching for Out-of-Core Applications
, 1996
"... Current operating systems offer poor performance when a numeric application's working set does not fit in main memory. As a result, programmers who wish to solve "out-of-core" problems efficiently are typically faced with the onerous task of rewriting an application to use explicit I/ ..."

The FDP Faculty Burden Survey
- Research Management Review
, 2009
"... ABSTRACT To better understand the administrative burdens placed on faculty who perform research, the Faculty Standing Committee of the Federal Demonstration Partnership (FDP) invited 23,325 fulltime faculty members who were Principal Investigators (PI) or Co-Principal Investigators (Co-PI) on activ ..."

significant: 42% of the time spent by an average PI on a federally funded research project was reported to be expended on administrative tasks related to that project rather than on research. This administrative burden does not stem from one or a few exceptionally onerous tasks, but instead reflects
Gadara: Dynamic Deadlock Avoidance for Multithreaded Programs
"... Deadlock is an increasingly pressing concern as the multicore revolution forces parallel programming upon the average programmer. Existing approaches to deadlock impose onerous burdens on developers, entail high runtime performance overheads, or offer no help for unmodified legacy code. Gadara autom ..."

COVER FE ATURE ELIMINATING CONCURRENCY BUGS WITH CONTROL ENGINEERING
"... In the multicore era, concurrency bugs threaten to reduce programmer productivity, impair software safety, and erode end-user value. Control engineering can eliminate concurrency bugs by constraining software behavior, preventing runtime failures, and offloading onerous burdens from human programmer ..."

Graceful Service Degradation (or, How to Know your Payment is Late)
, 2005
"... When distributing digital content over a broadcast channel it’s often necessary to revoke users whose access privileges have expired, thus preventing them from recovering the content. This works well when users make a conscious decision to leave the system or have misbehaved, but numerous cases exis ..."

exist in which the revocation is in error and users are consequently left with the often onerous burden of getting reinstated. We introduce a gradual form of revocation that we call service degradation that enables the content distributor to provide “cues” to the user in the form of degraded system
Active Semi-Supervised Defect Categorization
"... Abstract—Defects are inseparable part of software develop-ment and evolution. To better comprehend problems affecting a software system, developers often store historical defects and these defects can be categorized into families. IBM proposes Orthogonal Defect Categorization (ODC) which include var ..."

, these approaches often require developers to manually label a large number of defect examples. In practice, manually labelling a large number of examples is both time-consuming and labor-intensive. Thus, reducing the onerous burden of manual labelling while still being able to achieve good performance is crucial
Shifting Administrative Burden to the State: A Case Study of Medicaid Take-Up
"... Administrative burden is an individual’s experience of policy implementation as onerous. These burdens may be created because of a desire to limit payments to ineligible claimants, but also serve to limit take-up of benefits by eligible claimants. For citizens, this burden may occur through learning ..."

Describing and Analyzing Behaviours over Tabular Specifications using (Dyn)Alloy
"... Abstract. We propose complementing tabular notations used in requirements specifications, such as those used in the SCR method, with a formalism for describing specific, useful, subclasses of computations, i.e., particular combinations of the atomic transitions specified within tables. This provides ..."
Abstract

. This provides the specifier with the ability of driving the execution of transitions specified by tables, without the onerous burden of having to introduce modifications into the tabular expressions; thus, it avoids the problem of modifying the object of analysis, which would make the analysis indirect
DOI: 10.1159/000363766 Ageing Prisoners ’ Disease Burden: Is Being Old a Better Predictor than Time Served in Prison?
"... somatic diseases as reported in the medical records. Results were analysed using descriptive statistics and a negative bi-nomial model. Results: Data of 380 male prisoners from 13 different prisons in Switzerland reveal that the mean ages of older and younger prisoners were 58.78 and 34.26 years, re ..."
