Workload Matters: Why RDF Databases Need a New Design
"... The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a standard for conceptually describing data on the Web, and SPARQL is the query language for RDF. As RDF is becoming widely utilized, RDF data management systems are being exposed to more diverse and dynamic workloads. Existing systems are workload-oblivio ..."

Modeling the Workload-Performance Relationship
"... Human factors research is often focused on the mental workload that is required to perform a task or set of tasks with the goal of reducing workload to make systems easier to manage. The Improved Performance Research Integration Tool (IMPRINT) includes an algorithm to predict mental workload. The al ..."

. The algorithm was developed using subject matter expert ratings of workload tasks. We aimed to enhance this capability by developing algorithms using data from four new studies investigating change in performance as demands on mental resources increase. The results indicate three task types of similar
Naval Crew Workload Monitoring and Visualization
, 2003
"... This paper documents the concept and design evolution of a visualization method for a crew workload-monitoring tool. Crew leaders and trainers, devisers of Navy tactics, techniques, and procedures, and human factors designers of crew-served systems can use this visualization to understand the effect ..."

Dynamic Workload-Based Partitioning for Large-Scale Databases
"... Abstract. Applications with very large databases, where data items are continuously appended, are becoming more and more common. Thus, the development of efficient workload-based data partitioning is one of the main requirements to offer good performance to most of those appli-cations that have comp ..."

HUMAN FACTORS, 1991,33(6),677-691 Using the Subjective Workload Dominance (SWORD) Technique for Projective Workload Assessment
"... The present study examined the utility of the Subjective Workload Dominance (SWORD) technique as a projective workload tool. Two groups predicted the work-load associated with using six possible head-up display (HUD) formats. One group contained college students inexperienced with HUDs, and the seco ..."

Dynamic Surge Protection: An Approach to Handling Unexpected Workload Surges with Resource Actions that Have Lead Times
, 2003
"... Today's information technology departments have widely varying demands for resources due to unexpected surges in subscriber demands (e.g., a large response to a product promotion). Further complicating matters is that many resource actions done in response to surges (e.g., provisioning or de-pr ..."
