I’m writing a series of posts about Generalizing Apdex. This is #24. To minimize confusion, section numbers in the current spec are accompanied by the section symbol, like this: §1. The corresponding section numbers in the generalized spec documents, Apdex-G and Apdex-R, are enclosed in square brackets and prefixed by the document type, like this: [G 1] and [R 1].

This post presents the first draft of Apdex-R, Sections 1 and 2. Apdex-R specifies the Apdex rules for reporting response-time measurements, therefore my first draft draws heavily on the present Apdex spec. My goal is to reformat the present spec’s rules within the context established by Apdex-G. To allow both documents to be viewed together, I show Apdex-G (draft #2, plus a few subsequent amendments) on the left, and Apdex-R (draft #1) on the right.
Differences between Apdex-R and the corresponding sections of the present spec are highlighted, as follows:
text deleted from the present spec
new text added to Apdex-R (plus a few additions to Apdex-G draft #2)
new text created for Apdex-G, now being repeated in Apdex-R for readability
notes, questions, issues to be resolved
While major deletions, additions, and changes to the present spec are marked, many minor wording changes to the present spec’s text, to improve continuity and clarity of meaning, are not marked. I believe those changes do not substantially alter the meaning and intent of the present spec.

I have been working systematically through the process of generalizing the current Apdex spec. Along the way, I have been skipping over parts of the current spec to work on the paragraphs that presented challenges. I am now going back to fill in those less contentious paragraphs, posting updated drafts of each section of the Apdex-G spec. The first five are Section [1] Introduction, Section [2] Index Overview, Section [3] Calculation Inputs, Section [4] Calculating the Index, and Section [5] Reporting; today I continue with Section [6] References.

I have been working systematically through the process of generalizing the current Apdex spec. Along the way, I have been skipping over parts of the current spec to work on the paragraphs that presented challenges. I am now ready to go back and fill in those less contentious paragraphs. Over the next week, I plan to post updated drafts of each section of the Apdex-G spec, beginning today with Section [1] Introduction.
Because this material includes some drafts posted previously, some of which I have edited, everything in this series of posts is considered the second draft of Apdex-G. After the second draft is posted, I will begin work on Apdex-R, the addendum addressing measurements of response times. Apdex-R will cover all the domain-specific content of the current spec that has been excised from Apdex-G. Continue reading Apdex-G Section [1] Introduction
