Hierarchical administrative subdivision codes

چکیده
The land area of the world is divided into countries. Most of the countries are, in turn, divided into smaller units. These units may be called states, provinces, regions, governorates, and so on. A phrase that describes them all is "major administrative divisions of countries". Due to shortcomings of related de-jure standards a hierarchical set of subdivision codes, called Hierarchical Administrative Subdivision Codes (HASC), has been devised, extending in many cases to secondary administrative divisions. This is not an official standard, sanctioned by any international body. The codes are intended for internal use within a database or other computer system and not for display.

Total perfect codes, OO-irredundant and total subdivision in graphs
Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a graph, $gamma_t(G)$. Let $ooir(G)$ be the total domination and OO-irredundance number of $G$, respectively. A total dominating set $S$ of $G$ is called a $textit{total perfect code}$ if every vertex in $V(G)$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex of $S$. In this paper, we show that if $G$ has a total perfect code, then $gamma_t(G)=ooir(G)$. As a consequence, ...
متن کاملLimited Accuracy of Administrative Data for the Identification and Classification of Adult Congenital Heart Disease
BACKGROUND Administrative data sets utilize billing codes for research and quality assessment. Previous data suggest that such codes can accurately identify adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) in the cardiology clinic, but their use has yet to be validated in a larger population. METHODS AND RESULTS All administrative codes from an entire health system were queried for a single year. A...
متن کاملA Subdivision Method to Unify the Existing Latitude and Longitude Grids
As research on large regions of earth progresses, many geographical subdivision grids have been established for various spatial applications by different industries and disciplines. However, there is no clear relationship between the different grids and no consistent spatial reference grid that allows for information exchange and comprehensive application. Sharing and exchange of data across de...
متن کاملImproving Hierarchical Monte
Hierarchical subdivision techniques remove the need for a-priori meshing of surfaces when approximating global illumination. In addition they allow progressive reenement of the solution. However, when subdivision is based upon Monte Carlo methods, due to the stochastic nature of such techniques, subdivision decisions cannot be made unless a suuciently large number of samples have been considere...
متن کاملAppraisal of compliance with land subdivision planning regulations in residential neighbourhoods
Although previous studies have attempted to address the challenge of land subdivision, there is still a scarcity in the literature on how the extent of conformity to land subdivision planning regulations may be statistically and spatially analyzed. This study, therefore, explores the extent to which residential developers comply with land subdivision planning regulations in Kenya, a case study ...
