Respiratory function: A systems approach
… regulatory operation of respiration. We adopt a systems view of the process, whereby the breathing apparatus (mechanics model) represents the plant, actuated by the respiratory muscles and controlled by the CPG. The mechanics model has two degrees of freedom (for lung and airway motion) and …

Language : a complex-systems approach
… twentieth-century linguistics, a segregational approach, cannot explain the most obvious characteristics of language. The reasons for this are investigated. It is concluded that linguistics suffers from an incoherent conceptual framework which is the result of influences from three major …

A systems approach to replacement
The object of this study is a new approach to the problem of replacement of assets which deteriorate and become obsolete with time. The investigator views replacement theory as a subset of capital budgeting. Capital budgeting has received much more attention, has benefited from many advances in …

An integrated systems approach to QFD
… subjective data in the QFD charts.<br/><br/>Two approaches are developed that integrate Fuzzy Logic and Fuzzy Set theory with QFD to identify and rectify inconsistencies in the input data in the QFD charts. Another approach that integrates the Taguchi Method and QFD is further developed to set …

A systems approach to renal dialysis
… system consisting of several interconnected subsystems of the human organism. The model is based on current general physiological knowledge, but can be tailored to simulate individual patients by adjusting model parameters. Model parameters for individual patients may be obtained by using a …

Dynamical systems approach to binocular stereopsis
… by interactions among low-order dynamical systems serving as feature detectors. In this model, a dynamical system is an ensemble of nonlinear oscillators associated with an image location. The initial state of each oscillator is determined by the gray-level context of the image location. …

A Systems Approach to Global Health
… and scale of this endeavour challenges reductive approaches to intervention: many efforts to make matters better either do not work, or do not work as intended. As a result, there is a growing recognition of the importance of taking a systems approach to global health, yet without a clear …

Rescuing endangered knowledge : a systems approach
This research involves the identification and definition of"Endangered Knowledge" and outlines a tool that a firm can use to identify, capture, and reutilizes endangered knowledge. Endangered knowledge (EK) is valuable knowledge firms acquire during product development that has a high potential to …

Time series formalism : a systems approach
Time series data has become a modern day phenomena: from stock market data to social media information, modern day data exists as a continuous flow of information indexed by timestamps. Using this data to gather contextual inference and make future predictions is vital to gaining an analytical …

The Evolution Of Science: A Systems Approach
… conjunction with the ontological is not a common approach in contemporary philosophy of science. I therefore begin the dissertation by arguing that these two areas of philosophy are intimately interrelated, and that the one-sided concentration on epistemological issues has led to an unsatisfactory …

A parallel systems approach to universal receivers
A universal approach to the design of communication systems for unknown and time-varying channels is introduced. The true channel is from a known set of channels called the channel class, but the transmitter and receiver do not know which of these channels is actually in effect. One of the goals of …

A systems approach to engineering cancer nanotechnologies
… blocks through which multi-component nanosystems could be constructed. Yet, while biological systems produce higher-order functions through coordinated interactions between multiple nanoscale components, biomedical nanotechnologies to date have largely lacked systems-scale complexity. …

A systems approach to food accident analysis
Food borne illnesses lead to 3000 deaths per year in the United States. Some industries, such as aviation, have made great strides increasing safety through careful accident analysis leading to changes in industry practices. In the food industry, the current methods of accident analysis are …

A Systems Approach to Effective AIOps Implementation
… by building a general framework using systems thinking methodologies. The framework proposed builds a structure on the rubric of socio aspect, technical aspect, socio-technical intersection, system dynamics, and environmental factors of AIOps implementation. Each aspect has its …

A systems approach to team performance measurement
… have been developed. However, few unified approaches to measuring team performance have been proposed. Team performance measurement (TPM) is important for several reasons: 1) team measures have a motivating and focusing influence on team processes; 2) measurement provides necessary feedback …
