Which network measurement tool is right for you? a multidimensional comparison study
2008
2008 9th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Grid Computing
In this paper, we take two of the most widely used and accepted network measurement tools as a case study: Iperf and Network Weather service. ...
The selection of the most advantageous network measurement tool or system for specific needs can be very time consuming and may require detailed experimental analysis. ...

You can't always sketch what you want: Understanding Sensemaking in Visual Query Systems
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
Our study results reveal that ad-hoc sketch-only querying is not as commonly used as prior work suggests, since analysts are often unable to precisely express their patterns of interest. ...
Our findings suggest that all three sensemaking processes must be integrated in order to make future VQSs useful for a wide range of analytical inquiries. ...
