Managing resource constraints in firms
… Frequently, this is due to the existence of resource constraints, such as the liabilities of smallness, newness or foreignness. Consequently, to survive in the market, small, new or foreign firms need to find efficient ways to use their resources. Multiple ways to alleviate these problems …

Perception-driven optimal motion planning under resource constraints
Over the past few years there has been a new wave of interest in fully autonomous robots operating in the real world, with applications from autonomous driving to search and rescue. These robots are expected to operate at high speeds in unknown, unstructured environments using only onboard sensing …

Task-driven navigation and mapping with resource constraints
… data quickly and cheaply, robots are typically resource-constrained in storing and processing all the of the data. New algorithmic challenges arise that how to process data selectively to be directly useful for the robot tasks, and use sparse models to meet resource constraints. In many of the …

Optimizing Integrated Continuous Biomanufacturing Throughput: Resource Constraints and Process Scheduling
… and to determine whether current labor resources are sufficient to enable production at this level. To address these questions, the system will first be understood at a high level with preliminary analysis of its available capacity and of resource capacity utilization. A more robust …

Crisis response strategies of established SMEs in a resource constraints environment
The purpose of this research is to investigate the crisis management strategies used by owner managers of established SMEs to survive and overcome business crisis. The study uses contingency theory alongside the general crisis management model to explore crisis triggering events in SMEs, the crisis …

Supervised Machine Learning Under Test-Time Resource Constraints: A Trade-off Between Accuracy and Cost
… to machine learning research: computational resources must be budgeted and cost must be strictly accounted for during test-time. A typical problem is that if an application consumes x additional units of cost during test-time, but will improve accuracy by y percent, should the additional x …

Systematic Comparison Of Cross-Lingual Projection Techniques For Low-Density Nlp Under Strict Resource Constraints
… different languages, and different available resources - without a systematic comparison. The resulting architectures are then tested on the unique corpus and language for which this approach has been designed. This makes it difficult to truly evaluate which approach is truly the "best," or …

Analysis of epidemiological models for disease control in single and multiple populations under resource constraints
… range from reactive control measures, where the resources used to manage the epidemic in real time may be limited to prophylactic control measures such as deployment of genetically resistant plant varieties, which may lead to economic trade-offs. In such situations the question is how should …

Limited Means and What I Can't Buy: Resource Constraints and Resource Use Accessibility Drive Opportunity Cost Consideration
… Consumers have unlimited wants but limited resources, so satisfying one want means not satisfying another (the opportunity cost). An opportunity cost is "the evaluation placed on the most highly valued of the rejected alternatives or opportunities" (Buchanan 2008) or "the loss of other …

Resource constraints in an epidemic: a goal programming and mathematical modelling framework for optimal resource shifting in South Africa
… has been to incorporate the feature that resources available to the health system are limited. Building capacity constraints into the Model allowed it to be used in the resource-scarce context of a pandemic. This thesis further designed and implemented a goal programming framework to shift …

The international covenant on economic social and cultural rights: a critical examination of the relative importance of resource constraints on benchmarks and benchmarking processes in the African context
Ripping away colonial ties and bursting into an era of independence, freedom and development, African states welcomed the international movement for the development of a global human rights system in the 1950s and 60s. The pillars of this system ushered in rights that, it was hoped, would fully …

An exploratory study of social innovation in for-profit social entrepreneurial ventures in India
… twofold. First, it attempts to understand the resource constraints under which social innovation emerges. Second, it investigates how SEV s overcome resource constraints through novel combinations of different forms of capital in line with the Schumpeterian view on innovation. In this …

Resource Bound Guarantees via Programming Languages
… and, more importantly, in which upper bounds on resource requirements can be inferred with certainty. Ensuring that software meets its resource constraints is important in a number of domains, most prominently in hard real-time systems and safety critical systems where failing to meet its time …

Resource-constrained and Resource-efficient Modern Cryptosystem Design
In the context of a system design, resource-constraints refer to severe restrictions on allowable resources, while resource-efficiency is the capability to achieve a desired performance and, at the same time, to reduce wasting resources. To design for low-cost platforms, these fundamental concepts …

ScenarioXP: A Complete Scenario-Based Testing Framework for the Exploration and Exploitation of Autonomous Vehicle Validation Scenarios
… (V\&V) of these complex systems under time and resource constraints, as the use of artificial intelligence and also the intricacy of the operating environment means that these systems are also black-box and non-deterministic. Scenario-based V\&V testing of such systems, which involves …

Customization and Composition of Distributed Objects: Policy Management in Distributed Software Architectures
… new elements, called policies, which specify resource constraints. We provide a Java-based implementation of DCL to demonstrate that we may increase modularity without sacrificing performance.
