Transferring the workload to already overburdened staff at the State Department and the citizenship agency's domestic offices could lead to long delays, several agency officials and immigration lawyers said, keeping many applicants stranded abroad for months or longer as they and their loved ones navigate the necessary red tape needed to immigrate.
That move could, however, exacerbate nurses' dissatisfaction with their workloads and simply transfer the problem of workforce shortage from one professional group to another.

Far from being a benign transformative force that will produce a healthier, more equal and more cohesive society once the information-poor have been given training and behaviour modification advice, 'assistive' technologies are an invidious form of social control, potentially increasing inequalities by transferring responsibility and workload from the system onto the patient and family.
Then, on weekends, the workload often transfers to the couple's place in Wainscott, N.Y., where they indulge their newfound passion, surfing.
Here we focus on these two issues: balancing the workload by transferring jobs to idle sites at prime time to minimize the response time and maximize the resource utilization; power management by switch the idle sites to sleeping mode at non-prime time to minimize the energy consume.
Once EC2 notifies that the new VM is up and running, the profile information (IP address, name tag, etc). of the original VM is transferred to its successor, and the workload is automatically passed to the new VM (due to the IP address reallocation).
It requires only O v√v) communication complexity and each node receives workload information from all the nodes without redundancy since each link has the same amount of traffic for transferring workload information.
Based on the linkage of two or more servers, any failure in this configuration allows the workload to be immediately transferred to another operating server.
Although the latter is not the bulk of the workload, numbers of such transfers will only rise with the increasing trend to centralize such services.
The hospital, which delivers 250 babies a month and has 26,000 emergency-room visits a year, has worked out a plan to transfer much of its workload to Valley Presbyterian Hospital, a mile east, Mr. Conway said.
