Measuring and quantifying acute exacerbations of COPD: pitfalls and practicalities.
Pity the poor clinical researcher who is charged with identifying and quantifying chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation events in clinical trials. An exacerbation of COPD is a clinical event that: 1) has no standard, consensus definition [1]; 2) often goes unreported and undetected if patients choose to stay at home instead of presenting to a healthcare provider [2]; 3) ofte...
متن کاملSite-specific management of nematodes pitfalls and practicalities.
The greatest constraint to potato production in the United Kingdom (UK) is damage by the potato cyst nematodes (PCN) Globodera pallida and G. rostochiensis. Management of PCN depends heavily on nematicides, which are costly. Of all the inputs in UK agriculture, nematicides offer the largest potential cost savings from spatially variable application, and these savings would be accompanied by env...
متن کاملPitfalls and Practicalities of Reasoning on the Web
Rules have traditionally been used in theoretical computer science, compiler technology, databases, logic programming, and AI. The Semantic Web is a new W3C Activity trying to represent information in the World Wide Web such that it can be used by machines not just for display purposes, but for automation, integration, and reuse across applications. Rule markup in the Web has become a hot topic...
متن کاملValidated Constraint Solving-Practicalities, Pitfalls, and New Developments
Many constraint propagation techniques iterate through the constraints in a straightforward manner, but can fail because they do not take account of the coupling between the constraints. However, some methods of taking account of this coupling are local in nature, and fail if the initial search region is too large. We put into perspective newer methods, based on linear relaxations, that can oft...
متن کاملConcurrent planning: benefits and pitfalls.
Concurrent planning-working with families toward reunification while developing alternative permanency plans--was designed to fit an out-of-home care population much like that projected for the year 2000 and beyond: very young, chronically neglected children from multiproblem families. As large-scale programs begin to develop nationally, those implementing concurrent planning must be aware of t...
