Sense and Respond Systems

The term sense and respond systems has been widely used for some time; see for instance: [Haeckel93, Haeckel99]. A review of government, private and NGO (Non-Governmental Organizational) responses to natural and man-made disasters shows that success in responding to a changing environment depends much more on leadership, organization, and training than on information technology (IT).

On "Prospective Evaluation of the AM-PAC-CAT..." Jette et al. Phys Ther. 2007;87:385-398.

To the editor: The authors are to be complimented for a strong paper describing a methodologically complex process in an understandable manner. Although others have applied computerized adaptive testing (CAT) applications in outpatient rehabilitation for several years, 1 Jette et al 2 are the fi rst to publish results of a practical application of a CAT in a peer-reviewed journal. The strength ...

Branch-and-cut Algorithms for Integer Programming, Branch-and-cut

Branch-and-cut methods are exact algorithms for integer programming problems. They consist of a combination of a cutting plane method with a branch-and-bound algorithm. These methods work by solving a sequence of linear programming relaxations of the integer programming problem. Cutting plane methods improve the relaxation of the problem to more closely approximate the integer programming probl...
