Evaluating and informing reformulation strategies to achieve healthier Australian diets
… the Australian federal government released reformulation targets for sodium, sugar and saturated fat across a range of foods. This body of work aimed to evaluate and inform Australia’s reformulation program and explore the impact of advocacy on food industry voluntary reformulation. Chapter …

SEARCHING AS THINKING: THE ROLE OF CUES IN QUERY REFORMULATION
… in the field of IR, research on query reformulation is typically limited to dealing with the "what" or the "how" of the query reformulation process. Drawing a complete picture of searchers' behavior is thus incomplete without addressing the "why" of query reformulation, including what …

Intent modeling and automatic query reformulation for search engine systems
… completion and correction, and syntactic query reformulation are proposed and studied in this part. Experiments show that the proposed query formulation support methods can help users formulate more effective queries and alleviate search difficulty. In the third part, I study how to model search …

The American Wesleyan-Holiness Movement's doctrine of entire sanctification: A reformulation
The problem this dissertation attempts to solve is how to define entire sanctification for the contemporary American Holiness Movement. A distinctive debate is going on between Wesleyan-Holiness scholars. Scholars are asking the following questions: What is Wesley's doctrine of entire …

Cognition in the Christian reformulation of Tonga: Motivation, internalization, and schemas
Christian missionaries came to Tonga in the 19th century with the intention of converting the Tongans to Christianity and transforming Tongan society to fit with European-Victorian ideals. The missionaries were successful in their conversion efforts. However, traditional Tongan society was not …

Information Quality Criteria Analysis in Query Reformulation in Dynamic Distributed Environments
… to dynamic distributed environments is the query reformulation process between a pair of peers. When a user poses a query at a peer, in order to acquire more information, the query should be reformulated in accordance with the neighbor peers schema. In this process some problems as semantic loss …

Torture, text and the reformulation of spiritual identity in old English religious verse
The Introduction to this thesis includes a brief discussion of various understandings of what torture is, and a statement of the definition of torture adopted for the purposes of this study. Torture, as it is examined in this study, is not so much an act of violence as it is a violent process; that …

Optimal control reformulation for the solution of decision-making problems in chemical engineering
… The goal behind developing optimal control reformulations is to effectively solve these problems, while overcoming the drawbacks of the widely used commercial solvers, and three different types of problems are examined. First, the proposed solution scheme is used for finding the best …

Global Optimization of the Nonconvex Containership Design Problem Using the Reformulation-Linearization Technique
… Navigator - see Sahinidis, 1996), although the Reformulation-Linearization Technique (RLT)-based procedure of Sherali and Tuncbilek (1992, 1997) offers a viable alternative (BARON itself incorporates some elements of the latter approach). The resulting solution is refined by the application of a …

A reformulation-linearization based implicit enumeration algorithm for the rectilinear distance location-allocation problem
… programming relaxations constructed via the Reformulation-Linearization Technique (RLT), the latter formulation is shown to provide stronger lower bounds and is therefore adopted for implementation. In addition, cutting planes are developed to further strengthen the linear programming …

Specification tests and a reformulation of frontier models: An alternative approach to efficiency estimation
Following Farrell's (1957) definitions of firm's technical and allocative efficiencies and the formulation of composite error stochastic frontier model by Aigner, Lovell and Schmidt (1977), a substantial amount of research work has been performed measuring firm's technical inefficiency using this …

Enhanced intersection cutting plane and reformulation-linearization enumeration based approaches for linear complementarity problems
… a global optimization algorithm based on a novel Reformulation-Linearization Technique (RLT). We do not place any restrictions on the matrix M associated with LCP in this case. This RLT scheme provides an equivalent linear, mixed integer programming formulation of LCP, that possesses a tight …

A PATH ENUMERATION REFORMULATION OF THE SCHEDULE MIXED INTEGER PROGRAM SUPPORTING EXPEDITIONARY ADVANCED BASE OPERATIONS.
… This thesis describes a path enumeration-based reformulation known as the Path Enumeration Mixed-Integer Program (PE-MIP). PE-MIP is designed to provide a less computationally difficult model than the antecedent model S-MIP. We compare the runtime of PE-MIP and the quality of its solutions with …
