A Data Quality Control Program for Computer-Assisted Personal Interviews

Researchers strive to optimize data quality in order to ensure that study findings are valid and reliable. In this paper, we describe a data quality control program designed to maximize quality of survey data collected using computer-assisted personal interviews. The quality control program comprised three phases: (1) software development, (2) an interviewer quality control protocol, and (3) a ...

Program Partitioning for a Control/data Driven Computer Program Partitioning for a Control/data Driven Computer ?

The paper examines the problem of dataaow graph partitioning aiming to improve the eeciency of macro-dataaow computing on a hybrid control/data driven architecture. The partitioning consists of dataaow graph synchronization and scheduling of the synchronous graph. A new scheduling algorithm, called Global Arc Minimization (GAM), is introduced. The performance of the GAM algorithm is evaluated r...

A description of a novel laboratory management software is provided. ScienceLabDatabase (SLD) offers a useful platform to organize a molecular biology research laboratory. The program manages stocks of biological samples, including plasmids, antibodies and cell lines, laboratory protocols and addresses, and it includes an easy ordering and funds managing system. Preformed data sheet templates h...

Design and evaluation of statistical control procedures: applications of a computer "quality control simulator" program.

A computer simulation program has been developed to aid in designing and evaluating statistical control procedures. This "QC stimulator" (quality control) program permits the user to study the effects of different factors on the performance of quality-control procedures. These factors may be properties of the analytical procedure, characteristics of the instrument system, or conditions for the ...
