Sources of Inefficiency in Healthcare and Education.
the article page for additional materials and author disclosure statement(s). Healthcare and education share commonalities in mission, financing, and empirical regularities. Both are central to allowing people to perform at their capabilities. Both are often provided by, or subsidized by, government. Heterogeneity— the idea that interventions such as AP classes or bypass surgery may have differ...
متن کاملNber Working Paper Series Identifying Sources of Inefficiency in Health Care
In medicine, the reasons for variation in treatment rates across hospitals serving similar patients are not well understood. Some interpret this variation as unwarranted, and push standardization of care as a way of reducing allocative inefficiency. However, an alternative interpretation is that hospitals with greater expertise in a treatment use it more because of their comparative advantage, ...
متن کاملInefficiency in Networks with Multiple Sources and Sinks
We study the problem of optimizing traffic in decentralized transportation networks, where the cost of a link depends on its congestion. If users of a transportation network are permitted to choose their own routes, they generally try to minimize their personal travel time. In the absence of centralized coordination, such a behavior can be inefficient for society and even for each individual us...
متن کاملSources of Parallel Inefficiency for Incompressible CFD Simulations (Research Note)
Parallel multigrid methods are very prominent tools for solving huge systems of (non-)linear equations arising from the discretisation of PDEs, as for instance in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The superiority of multigrid methods in regard of numerical complexity mainly stands and falls with the smoothing algorithms (‘smoother’) used. Since the inherent highly recursive character of many ...
متن کاملIdentifying Representative Textual Sources in Blog Networks
We apply methods from social network analysis and visualization to facilitate a study of the Irish blogosphere from a cultural studies perspective. We focus on solving the practical issues that arise when the goal is to perform textual analysis of the corpus produced by a network of bloggers. Previous studies into blogging networks have noted difficulties arising when trying to identify the ext...
