This paper considers one of the paradoxes of incentive pay used in Britain’s public services, namely that despite much evidence that it does not motivate employees, it continues to be widely used. It is argued that behind this evidence, there are significant examples in which its use has been associated with improved performance. A good part of this is to be explained by the way performance pay...

The multidimensional exponential Levy equations are used to describe many stochastic phenomena such as market fluctuations. Unfortunately in practice an exact solution does not exist for these equations. This motivates us to propose a numerical solution for n-dimensional exponential Levy equations by block pulse functions. We compute the jump integral of each block pulse function and present a ...

We present a simple strongly universal innocent game model for Levy-Longo trees i.e. every point in the model is the denotation of a unique Levy-Longo tree. The observational quotient of the model then gives a universal, and hence fully abstract, model of the pure Lazy Lambda Calculus.

Meet Dr. Tom Levy (who changed the status of U.S. Vitamin C usage after his best selling book and presentation to us last year. Now he intends to change the status of Calcium usage worldwide, after this presentation and new book due out in December).Dr. Levy received his Bachelor of Arts degree in biology from the Johns Hopkins University in 1972. He later graduated from the Tulane University S...
