We develop algorithms for a single machine stochastic appointment sequencing and scheduling problem with waiting time, idle time, and overtime costs. This is a basic stochastic scheduling problem that has been studied in various forms by several previous authors. Applications for this problem cited previously include scheduling of surgeries in an operating room (Denton, 2007, Denton and Gupta,2...

SUMMARY The Denton two-dimensional and three-dimensional time marching blade-to-blade computer programs have been used at NGTE to analyse the flow past transonic turbine blading. In this work experience has been gained in operating the programs and this paper describes the major findings in respect of how the programs have performed. Solutions for several blade sections, giving Mach number dist...

A population survey was conducted from April through September 2002 on mosquito species occurring on the Ray Roberts Greenbelt, a riparian corridor used for public recreation on the Elm Fork of the Trinity River, in Denton County, TX. Geographic information system software was used to set up a stratified random sampling design based on habitat parameters. Mosquitoes were collected using light t...

In order to construct a general density-functional theory for nonuniform fluid mixtures, we propose an extension to multicomponent systems of the weighted-density approximation of Curtin and Ashcroft [Phys. Rev. A 32, 2909 (1985)]. This extension corrects a deficiency in a similar extension proposed earlier by Denton and Ashcroft [Phys. Rev. A 42, 7312 (1990)], in that that functional cannot be...

1292 INTRODUCTION Since the recognition of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), animal models have been developed to study various aspects of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, pathogenesis and control. The most common route of HIV transmission, sexual transmission (UNAIDS, 2012), has been investigated by simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection of macaques and HIV infect...

The Earlie King & Kid in Yellow (2018), de Danny Denton, narra o mito da destruição Irlanda através do fogo e colapso digital após país enfrentar anos chuvas ininterruptas causadas pela catástrofe ambiental deixada principalmente indústria farmacêutica. O propósito deste artigo é investigar como essa obra coaduna desafia ao mesmo tempo a tradição ecocrítica distópica produzida na língua ing...
