TaskAmbient: A Study in Personal Task Management Visualization
In personal task management, individual tasks are susceptible to failure at various stages due to failures in prospective memory, information fragmentation, and/or cognitive overload. To alleviate the troubles that occur in personal task management, people use various tools such as notifications …

Task management driven simulation of grid applications using SimGrid
Task graph models are normally used to represent the organization of grid applications in terms of the interaction between tasks. However, in a grid environment there is neither an efficient task management scheme nor any efficient structures to support the execution of large complex applications. …

Characterizing and Predicting Tasks at Risk in Team Task Management
Collaborative project management involves interacting with various tasks in a shared planning space where members add, assign, complete, and edit project-related tasks to have a shared view of the project’s status. This process directly impacts how individual team members select, prioritize, and …

TaskDo: A Daily Task Recommender System
… house makers often find a lack of time and time management as problems for successful task accomplishment. Many people face challenges in allocating time for their day to day work and personal life activities. One of the key reasons for this failure in task accomplishment is inefficient planning …

Architectural techniques to unlock ordered and nested speculative parallelism
… they are limited to programs with coarse-grained tasks that synchronize infrequently. However, many applications have abundant parallelism when divided into small tasks (of a few tens to hundreds of instructions each). Current systems cannot exploit this fine-grained parallelism because …

A framework for real time passive data visualizations
… collection on the Android platform, storage and task management on the backend server, and finally display in the user-facing browser applications. The two javascript applications were built to demonstrate the functionality of the framework and test the results. A test framework was also designed …

A systems perspective on project management : interdependencies in the execution of capital projects in the automotive industry
… focus of the thesis is the analysis of a project management tool in executing capital-intensive, multi-stakeholder projects. While the example in this thesis is the result of work at General Motors (GM)' Global Casting, Engine and Transmission Center in Pontiac, MI, it is largely applicable to the …

Profile of an effective engineering manager at the Naval Avionics Center
… sensitivity along with administrative skill in task management. In contrast, intrinsic task motivation, job satisfaction and positive group climate were more strongly related to behaviors representing the management of external interfaces, building cooperative teamwork and the assignment of task …
