Expert patient education versus routine treatment : X-PERT
… those findings. The tutor's manual for the expert patient programme "X-PERT" is presented in Chapter 4. This was written to encourage the delivery of the X-PERT programme to adults living with Type 2 diabetes. It is designed to illustrate the theories of empowerment and patient activation. …

Integration of program evaluation and review technique (PERT), gantt chart and genetic algorithm in project management scheduling
… Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT), Gantt Chart (GC) and Genetic Algorithm (GA), is carried out. However, there are another techniques that have been considered before choosing that techniques which are Critical Path Method (CPM) and Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). The aims are …

Rigorous fit to the peak region of the thrust distribution
… peak region of the distribution, in which a nonperturbative soft function encoding the effects of large-angle soft gluon radiation plays a significant role. We write the soft function as an infinite sum of basis functions and use a truncated version in our calculations, allowing us to fit for …

Isospectral algorithms, Toeplitz matrices and orthogonal polynomials
… examples of isospectral algorithms, all pertaining to Toeplitz matrices in some fashion, and one directly involving orthogonal polynomials. The first set of algorithms we study come from discretising a continuous isospectral flow designed to converge to a symmetric Toeplitz matrix with …

A strategic approach to supply chain event management
… specifically critical path method, and PERT, to supply chain event management. The idea behind the project is to create a framework for putting supply chain events into a broader supply chain context and assessing their criticality. Such a framework can then be utilized as a starting …

A methodology for parsimoniously structuring a set of activities
In project or program planning, a Gantt or PERT chart is usually employed as a graphical representation of schedule for activities. Planners utilize this chart in performing analyses such as the Critical Path Method (CPM) and Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT). Very little effort, …

An evaluation technique for determining educational accountability
… a Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) was designed to facilitate understanding the purpose and nature of the management system introduced. This "flow" or PERT-Chart depicts the actual events occurring in the instructional process and provided the classroom teacher with a visual …

Precision determination of the strong coupling constant
… important and where it is not. To determine non perturbative effects, we fit renormalon-free nonperturbative matrix elements of operators defined in field theory, Q1. We perform a global analysis to all available thrust data in the tail region, where a two parameter fit to a,(mz) and the first …

A Comprehensive Profiling of Hemostatic Activation and Thromboinflammatory Biomarkers and Cellular Indices in Predicting Outcomes in Venous Thromboembolism
… of patients, namely the RIETE registry and LUMC PERT cohorts. Blood count data was used from 10,000 patients from the RIETE registry and provided the basis for cellular indices calculations. Blood samples from the PERT study, comprised of 500 patients with acute VTE, were analyzed for both …

Forecasting and risk analysis applied to management planning and control
… cost model and network based risk analysis (PERT). The former of these, in particular, imposes severe limitations which this study overcomes. Three areas of study were identified, namely growth curve forecasting, risk analysis and the interface of these quantitative techniques with project …

Optimization and standardization of the sales process in a service sector company through lean tools
… Mapping (VSM), locate the critical path using Pert-CPM, and identify the activity that is causing the greatest amount of process delay. To make the process of identifying standards simpler, data is then gathered and categorized. After standardizing the sales procedure and validating the …

The actions of rubellin and prorubellin, (in comparison with transvaalin)
… period of relative obscurity. During the latter pert of the last century and in recent years the position of squill as a 2 cardioactive drug was recognised and established by experimental work in animals and in patients with cardiac failure. However, at the present day the use of squill or any of …

An integrated method for managing complex engineering projects using the design structure matrix and advanced simulation
… a network-based schedule in the form of a PERT or Gantt chart is developed in the scheduling module. The schedule is used as the basis for monitoring and control of the project. The primary goal of this work is to develop an integrated method that guides project management efforts by …

Diet overlap and habitat segregation between redbreast sunfish and age-o smallmouth bass in the North Anna River, Virginia
I assessed the potential for competition between redbreast sunfish and age-0 smallmouth bass in a regulated Virginia River. I sampled stomachs of sunfish and bass throughout spring and summer. Sunfish were divided into small, medium, and large size-classes. Diets of bass shifted from predominantly …

Desired Future Conditions of Riparian Areas on Southeastern National Forests
Development of goals (desired future conditions (DFCs)) based on substantial public involvement is critical to the success of ecosystem management on public lands. I evaluated DFCs of riparian areas on national forests in the southern Appalachian mountains and evaluated a process for involving the …

Implementation of the critical chain project management methodology in IBM's S/390 software development environment
… and the Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT). The challenges also transcend the introduction of ever more powerful programming tools and techniques such as structured programming, high-level languages, source-level debuggers, and object-oriented programming. As in many industries, a key …
