Targeted versus universal prevention. a resource allocation model to prioritize cardiovascular prevention
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus brings an increased risk for cardiovascular complications and patients profit from prevention. This prevention also suits the general population. The question arises what is a better strategy: target the general population or diabetes patients. METHODS A mathematical programming model was developed to calculate optimal allocations for the Dutch population of the f...
متن کاملDeadlock Prevention for Sequence Resource Allocation Systems
This paper presents a deadlock prevention algorithm for the class of sequential resource allocation system for flexible manufacturing systems, which allows for multiple resources flexible routings. Two classes of Petri nets Extended from Systems of Simple Sequential Processes with Resources (ESPR) and Systems of Simple Sequential Processes with General Resource Requirements (SPGR) whose deadloc...

متن کاملMulti-level resource allocation for HIV prevention: A model for developing countries
Funds spent on HIV prevention commonly traverse several levels of distribution. For example, funds may be allocated to regions, and regional authorities may then allocate their funds to sub-regions or targeted risk groups. Decision makers at each level often make use of heuristics that may result in suboptimal allocation of resources. We examine the impact of equity-based heuristic allocation o...
متن کاملResource allocation in network processors for network intrusion prevention systems
Networking applications with high memory access overhead gradually exploit network processors that feature multiple hardware multithreaded processor cores along with a versatile memory hierarchy. Given rich hardware resources, however, the performance depends on whether those resources are properly allocated. In this work, we develop an NIPS (Network Intrusion Prevention System) edge gateway ov...
