Proposals for coed housing at Notre Dame and for a lower drinking age in Indiana have a good chance of passing this year, Student Body President Ed Byrne said Thursday. “ I ’m op tim is tic ," said Byrne. “ The whole point of the COUL (C om m ittee on U ndergraduate L ife) report was that we should begin discussion this year so that we’l l have a coed dorm for the incoming freshmen in 1976.” Bu...

In survival analysis, the accelerated failure time model is a useful alternative to the popular Cox proportional hazards model due to its easy interpretation. Current estimation methods for the accelerated failure time model mostly assume independent and identically distributed random errors, but in many applications the conditional variance of log survival times depend on covariates exhibiting...

This paper discusses control design issues for the existing thyristor controlled series compensation (TCSC) device at Slatt substation on the Slatt–Buckley 500-kV transmission line owned by BPA. The controls were developed at Washington State University (WSU) in a project funded by Bonneville Power Administration (BPA). The project has been carried out in close collaboration between the WSU tea...

In the paper we investigate power law for PageRank components for the Buckley-Osthus model for web graph. We compare different numerical methods for PageRank calculation. With the best method we do a lot of numerical experiments. These experiments confirm the hypothesis about power law. At the end we discuss real model of web-ranking based on the classical PageRank approach.
