BACKGROUND There are many approaches to evaluating aging-in-place technologies. While there are standard measures for outcomes such as health and caregiver burden, which lend themselves to statistical analysis, researchers have a harder time identifying why a particular information and communication technology (ICT) intervention worked (or not). OBJECTIVE The purpose of this paper is to revie...

Why Aging In Place Matters By Ryan Frederick EXECUTIVE SUMMARY “Aging in place” is becoming THE defining phenomenon both inside and outside of Seniors Housing. Aging in place refers to the desire of seniors to stay in a particular residential setting as long as possible, even as health care needs increase. Aging in place at one’s home, while already a stated preference among the vast majority...

We consider the computation of Bernoulli, Tangent (zag), and Secant (zig or Euler) numbers. In particular, we give asymptotically fast algorithms for computing the first n such numbers in O(n2(logn)2+o(1)) bit-operations. We also give very short in-place algorithms for computing the first n Tangent or Secant numbers in O(n2) integer operations. These algorithms are extremely simple, and fast fo...
