The transportation problem is a linear programming in which cost of reduced. We have developed the new method finding initial basic feasible solution by calculating coefficient variation row or column wise and result compared with VAM, LCM MODI method.

McKay’s chi-square approximation for the coefficient of variation is type II noncentral beta distributed and asymptotically normal with mean n 1 and variance smaller than 2ðn 1Þ. r 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Demographic heterogeneity is a central theoretical construct in organizational demography research. The most commonly used measure of demographic heterogeneity is the coefficient of variation. I critically evaluate the rationale for using this measure and show that the use of the coefficient of variation raises a number of methodological and interpretive problems. Empirical analyses of turnover...

Quantifying how patterns of behavior relate across multiple levels of measurement typically requires long time series for reliable parameter estimation. We describe a novel analysis that estimates patterns of variability across multiple scales of analysis suitable for time series of short duration. The multiscale coefficient of variation (MSCV) measures the distance between local coefficient of...

1. Intra-arterial blood pressure and heart rate were recorded for 24 h in ambulant hospitalized patients of variable age who had normal blood pressure or essential hypertension. Mean 24 h values, standard deviations and variation coefficient were obtained as the averages of values separately analysed for 48 consecutive half-hour periods. 2. In older subjects standard deviation and variation coe...

The aim of this study was to investigate intra- and interspecimen repeatability of an experimental procedure, which determines elastic and viscoelastic properties of knee ligaments. The collateral ligaments from sheep were used and the repeatability was evaluated in terms of the coefficient of variation. The results indicated a good intraspecimen repeatability (the coefficient of variation gene...

the volumetric expansion coefficient has an importance in determination of the free convection heat transfer coefficient. the buoyant force in the fluid which is the result of the variation of fluid density with temperature, is proportional to this expansion coefficient, b. this coefficient of b varies with temperature and it is important to understand under what conditions it should be evaluat...
