The Apdex Users Group community is constantly improving how to apply the methodology. The approach has also evolved into covering much more than application response time. Below are some useful references.<\/p>\n
We welcome additional papers on how the methodology was used for any dataset of measurements. Apdex is no longer limited to application performance.<\/p>\n
