Hearty fare?

Hearty slices to plan for future health.

Clinical trials have shown that heart function can only be moderately improved by injection of stem cells. Gains to date are most likely the result of increased wall stiffness and angiogenesis rather than generation of new, beatingmyocytes. Poor results could be due to the number and kind of cells used, the timing andmethod of delivery, lack of engraftment in an inhospitable local environment, ...

Fare Planning for Public Transport

In this paper we introduce the fare planning problem for public transport which consists in designing a system of fares maximizing revenue. We propose a new simple general model for this problem. It is based on a demand function and constraints for the different fares. The constraints define the structure of the fare system, e.g., distance dependent fares or zone fares. We discuss a simple exam...
