GME: at what cost?
Current computing methods impede determining the real cost of graduate medical education. However, a more accurate estimate could be obtained if policy makers would allow for the application of basic cost-accounting principles, including consideration of department-level costs, unbundling of joint costs, and other factors.
متن کاملScalability! But at what COST?
We offer a new metric for big data platforms, COST, or the Configuration that Outperforms a Single Thread. The COST of a given platform for a given problem is the hardware configuration required before the platform outperforms a competent single-threaded implementation. COST weighs a system’s scalability against the overheads introduced by the system, and indicates the actual performance gains ...
متن کاملDemystification of quantum entanglement
Recently a new attempt to go beyond QM was performed in the form of so called prequantum classical statistical field theory (PCSFT). In this approach quantum systems are described by classical random fields, e.g., electron field or neutron field. Averages of quantum observables arise as approximations of averages of classical variables (functionals of “prequantum fields”) with respect to fluctu...
متن کاملArgumentation-based design rationale: what use at what cost?
A design rationale (DR) is a representation of the reasoning behind the design of an artifact. In recent years, the use of semiformal notations for structuring arguments about design decisions has attracted much interest within the human-computer interaction and software engineering communities, leading to a number of DR notations and support environments. This paper examines two foundational c...

A population-based study of human immunodefi ciency virus in south India reveals major diff erences from sentinel surveillance-based estimates. Study Group. Declining HIV infection rates among recently married primigravid women in Pune, India. Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are a group of brominated compounds (209 congeners) that are typically used as fl ame retardants in the manufactur...
