The paper presents a comparison of Health and Welfare O.R. in the U.K. and Ireland as represented by two registers of current projects, compiled in 1972 and 1977 respectively. The survey shows that
相似文献
- i)There appear to be very few O.R. studies of social services;
- ii)The major focus has apparently moved away from hospital-based tactical studies, towards more broadly-based strategic studies;
- iii)Related to this, the number of projects labelled as concerned with "planning" has increased;
- iv)The number of projects involving "optimisation" has decreased, whilst those involving simulation have shown some increase; and
- v)The majority of projects in both years were described as involving "applied common sense", rather than any specific technique.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss and if possible to dispel the industrialist's misunderstanding of operational research. The author lists some of the varied ideas held by industrialists of operational research including several which are contradictory, as for example (a) That operational research is new and revolutionary; and (b) That operational research proves nothing new and has always been practised without being so named.A number of suggestions are then made and developed, which should lead to a better understanding. These include, clearer definitions of operational research and a better adaptation of the specialized literature to the needs of industrial management, with particular emphasis on the publication of real rather than synthetic case histories. Headings of sections are: 相似文献
- 1The attitude of industrialists.
- 2The exact nature of operational research.
- 3Problems, criteria, models.
- 4The practice of operational research in business.

Given a Zr-action α on a nilmanifold X by automorphisms and an ergodic α-invariant probability measure μ, we show that μ is the uniform measure on X unless, modulo finite index modification, one of the following obstructions occurs for an algebraic factor actionWe also deduce a rigidity property for invariant closed subsets.

- (1)the factor measure has zero entropy under every element of the action
- (2)the factor action is virtually cyclic.

This paper describes the techniques used in an enquiry into production planning and stock holding problems encountered by one of our member firms.The investigation of the problem falls into three parts: 相似文献
- i)The analysis of demand.
- ii)The determination of optimum stock levels.
- iii)The solution of the allocation problem which arises if the capacity available for the production of stock lines is not equal to the amount required to bring stocks back to the optimum levels. This problem has not been fully investigated, but a proposed method of solution is given in an appendix.

We consider all complex projective manifolds X that satisfy at least one of the following three conditions:
- (1)There exists a pair \({(C\,,\varphi)}\) , where C is a compact connected Riemann surface anda holomorphic map, such that the pull back \({\varphi^* {\it TX}}\) is not semistable.$\varphi\,:\, C\,\longrightarrow\, X$
- (2)The variety X admits an étale covering by an abelian variety.
- (3)The dimension dim X ≤ 1.
We prove that the following classes are among those that are of the above type.
相似文献
- All X with a finite fundamental group.
- All X such that there is a nonconstant morphism from \({{\mathbb C}{\mathbb P}^1}\) to X.
- All X such that the canonical line bundle K X is either positive or negative or \({c_1(K_X)\,\in\,H^2(X,\, {\mathbb Q})}\) vanishes.
- All X with \({{\rm dim}_{\mathbb C} X\, =\,2}\).

A weak basis of a module is a generating set of the module minimal with respect to inclusion. A module is said to be regularly weakly based provided that each of its generating sets contains a weak basis. We study

A series of treadmill experiments is described concerned with a runner's speed, heart-rate and the gradient. Together with the results of similar experiments, some of them carried out over 50 years ago, the results suggest that for a given heart-rate, log(speed) is linearly related to gradient, and that for a given gradient, heart-rate is linearly related to speed. The results suggest: 相似文献
- 1)that athletes who run p% faster on the level will run p% faster up a slope, if they maintain the same heart-rate;
- 2)that athletes will use the same number of heart beats running up a hill of uniform slope no matter how fast or slowly they run;
- 3)that athletes should run directly up any slope of less than about 20° and try to zigzag up slopes greater than this.

We consider a strategic supply chain planning problem formulated as a two-stage stochastic integer programming (SIP) model. The strategic decisions include site locations, choices of production, packing and distribution lines, and the capacity increment or decrement policies. The SIP model provides a practical representation of real-world discrete resource allocation problems in the presence of future uncertainties which arise due to changes in the business and economic environment. Such models that consider the future scenarios (along with their respective probabilities) not only identify optimal plans for each scenario, but also determine a hedged strategy for all the scenarios. We

- 1)exploit the natural decomposable structure of the SIP problem through Benders’ decomposition,
- 2)approximate the probability distribution of the random variables using the generalized lambda distribution, and
- 3)through simulations, calculate the performance statistics and the risk measures for the two models, namely the expected-value and the here-and-now.

The paper describes the use of an optimizing model, together with a simulation model, to determine the most effective mix and deployment of air defence weapons to defend a given set of assets against a range of air threats. The advantages of using an optimizing model in such studies are that it: 相似文献
- a—Gives more consistent results by reducing player variance.
- b—Can generate solutions that are robust to variations in threat and environment.
- c—Ensures that good solutions are not overlooked.
- d—Reduces the total processing time required to complete the study.

In this paper we show that if \(\mu \) is a Borel measure in \({{\mathbb {R}}}^{n+1}\) with growth of order n, such that the n-dimensional Riesz transform \({{\mathcal {R}}}_\mu \) is bounded in \(L^2(\mu )\), and \(B\subset {{\mathbb {R}}}^{n+1}\) is a ball with \(\mu (B)\approx r(B)^n\) such that: then there exists a uniformly n-rectifiable set \(\Gamma \), with \(\mu (\Gamma \cap B)\gtrsim \mu (B)\), and such that \(\mu |_\Gamma \) is absolutely continuous with respect to \({{\mathcal {H}}}^n|_\Gamma \). This result is an essential tool to solve an old question on a two phase problem for harmonic measure in subsequent papers by Azzam, Mourgoglou, Tolsa, and Volberg.

Let K be a knot in the 3-sphere S 3. We define the waist of K aswhere \({\mathcal{F}}\) is the set of all closed incompressible surfaces in S 3?K and \({\mathcal{D}_F}\) is the set of all compressing disks for F in S 3. We define the trunk of K aswhere \({\mathcal{H}}\) is the set of all Morse function \({h : S^3 \to \mathbb{R}}\) with two critical points. We show that.

We discuss the notion of characteristic Lie algebra of a hyperbolic PDE. The integrability of a hyperbolic PDE is closely related to the properties of the corresponding characteristic Lie algebra χ. We establish two explicit isomorphisms:
Hence the Lie algebras \(\chi (\sinh {u})\) and χ(eu + e??2u) are slowly linearly growing Lie algebras with average growth rates \(\frac {3}{2}\) and \(\frac {4}{3}\) respectively. 相似文献
- 1)the first one is between the characteristic Lie algebra \(\chi (\sinh {u})\) of the sinh-Gordon equation \(u_{xy}=\sinh {u}\) and the non-negative part \({\mathcal {L}}({\mathfrak {sl}}(2,{\mathbb {C}}))^{\ge 0}\) of the loop algebra of \({\mathfrak {sl}}(2,{\mathbb {C}})\) that corresponds to the Kac-Moody algebra \(A_{1}^{(1)}\)$$\chi(\sinh{u})\cong {\mathcal{L}}({\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}}(2,{\mathbb{C}}))^{\ge 0}={\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}}(2, {\mathbb{C}}) \otimes {\mathbb{C}}[t]. $$
- 2)the second isomorphism is for the Tzitzeica equation uxy = eu + e??2uwhere \({\mathcal {L}}({\mathfrak {sl}}(3,{\mathbb {C}}), \mu )=\bigoplus _{j \in {\mathbb {Z}}}{\mathfrak {g}}_{j (\text {mod} \; 2)} \otimes t^{j}\) is the twisted loop algebra of the simple Lie algebra \({\mathfrak {sl}}(3,{\mathbb {C}})\) that corresponds to the Kac-Moody algebra \(A_{2}^{(2)}\).$$\chi(e^{u}{+}e^{-2u}) \cong {\mathcal{L}}({\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}}(3,{\mathbb{C}}), \mu)^{\ge0}=\bigoplus_{j = 0}^{+\infty}{\mathfrak{g}}_{j (\text{mod} \; 2)} \otimes t^{j}, $$

Let X and Y be two Banach spaces, and f: X → Y be a standard ε-isometry for some ε ≥ 0. In this paper, by using a recent theorem established by Cheng et al. (2013–2015), we show a sufficient condition guaranteeing the following sharp stability inequality of f: There is a surjective linear operator T: Y → X of norm one so that
$$\left\| {Tf(x) - x} \right\| \leqslant 2\varepsilon , for all x \in X.$$
As its application, we prove the following statements are equivalent for a standard ε-isometry f: X → Y:
This gives an affirmative answer to a question proposed by Vestfrid (2004, 2015). 相似文献
