a benchmarking approach to optimal asset allocation for insurers and pension funds
uncertainty in the financial market will be driven by underlying brownian motions, while the assets are assumed to be general stochastic processes adapted to the filtration of the brownian motions. the goal of this study is to calculate the accumulated wealth in order to optimize the expected terminal value using a suitable utility function. this thesis introduced the lim-wong’s benchmark fun...
15 صفحه اولTumor growth instability and its implications for chemotherapy.
Optimal delivery of chemotherapy intensity is dependent on host- and tumor-specific characteristics. In this article, the chemotherapy late intensity schedule is revised to account for tumor growth instability, where a small tumor cell fraction emerges that exhibits a higher proliferation rate than the parent strain. Modeling this instability as simplified two-population dynamics, we find that:...

در هر برنامه آموزشی، مهم ترین فاکتور موثر بر موفقیت دانش آموزان کتاب درسی است (مک دونو و شاو 2003). در حقیقت ، کتاب قلب آموزش زبان انگلیسی است( شلدن 1988). به دلیل اهمیت والای کتاب به عنوان عنصر ضروری کلاس های آموزش زبان ، کتب باید به دقت ارزیابی و انتخاب شده تا از هرگونه تاثیر منفی بر دانش آموزان جلوگیری شود( لیتز). این تحقیق با طراحی پرسش نامه ارزیابی کتاب که فرصت ارزیابی معتبر را به اساتید د...
15 صفحه اولRadiotherapy planning for glioblastoma based on a tumor growth model: implications for spatial dose redistribution.
Gliomas differ from many other tumors as they grow infiltratively into the brain parenchyma rather than forming a solid tumor mass with a well-defined boundary. Tumor cells can be found several centimeters away from the central tumor mass that is visible using current imaging techniques. The infiltrative growth characteristics of gliomas question the concept of a radiotherapy target volume that...
متن کاملEvidence for Power Law Tumor Growth and Implications for Cancer Radiotherapy
Understanding tumor growth dynamics is important for planning cancer therapy, especially in radiotherapy, where standard fractionation is determined based on the assumption that tumors grow exponentially. In this chapter, we explore the ramifications of an alternative, but equally plausible, assumption of tumor growth, namely power growth law, realized in linear increase in tumor diameter. We p...
