Performance monitoring tools play a critical role in the overall productivity of business organizations by providing the necessary means of measuring the performance of the system or server attributes of the organization. They measure system or server throughput and processor usage through programmed software or technological platforms. Their monitoring is extremely efficient such that Network ...

BACKGROUND Proper monitoring of labor and childbirth prevents many pregnancy-related complications. However, monitoring is still poor in many places partly due to the usability concerns of support tools such as the partograph. In 2011, the World Health Organization (WHO) called for the development and evaluation of context-adaptable electronic health solutions to health challenges. Computerized...

On-line tools for parallel and distributed programs require a facility to observe and possibly manipulate the programs' run-time behavior, a so called monitoring system. Currently, most tools use proprietary monitoring techniques that are incompatible to each other and usually apply only to speciic target plattforms. The On-line Monitoring Interface Speciication (OMIS) is the rst speciication o...

Background: Monitoring serves to maintain physiologic variables within normal limits and when a parameter crosses a set threshold, an alarm is triggered. Therefore, this study aimed to determine whether alarm limits are properly adjusted in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) by nursing staff or not.Methods: The data concerning alarm limits corresponding to the three shifts of nursing...

This paper presents an on-line monitoring concept for distributed objectenvironments. On-line monitoring systems provide a powerful facility for realizing tools for the development and deployment of distributed applications. A major aspect in this context is the construction of interoperable tools capable of handling the complexity of large heterogeneous environments. Based on the requirements ...

As large grid infrastructures, such as Enabling Grids for E-sciencE, mature, they are being used by scientists around the world in their daily work, running thousands of concurrent computational jobs and transferring large amounts of data. The successful and sustainable operation of such grid infrastructures is only possible through the use of monitoring tools. The underlying networks upon whic...
