A Rapid Algorithm For Reliability Optimization Of Parallel Redundant Systems, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu, H. Sivaramakrishnan Oct 1978

A Rapid Algorithm For Reliability Optimization Of Parallel Redundant Systems, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu, H. Sivaramakrishnan

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

A rapid method is proposed for optimization of reliability of multiconstraint parallel redundant systems. The constraints need not be linear. This method provides good starting values, which are close to the boundary of the feasible region, for the number of redundant units in each subsystem. No proof has been presented to establish the optimality obtained by this method. Yet for examples tried out this method provides optimal or near optimal solutions.


Federal Antibias Legislation And Academic Freedom: Some Problems With Enforcement Procedures, Howard Hunter Jan 1978

Federal Antibias Legislation And Academic Freedom: Some Problems With Enforcement Procedures, Howard Hunter

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

Since World War II, changes and developments in various policies of the American government have given rise to a vast array of complex regulations applicable to institutions of higher learning that receive federal financial support.' Before World War II the federal government was not wholly divorced from matters of higher education, but financial support came principally from state or local governments and from private sources. The shift to a more active federal role has profoundly affected the nation's private colleges and universities.' While state schools have always had a close relationship with their supporting governments, the increased federal role has …

A Study Of Computer Use In A Graduate School Of Business, Henry C. Jr. Lucas, David B. Montgomery, Jean Claude Larreche

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

In the past six years, U.S. business schools have greatly expanded their use of computers in teaching and research. In 1966, only 11 percent of the business schools required student proficiency in programming; by 1970, the total had risen to 62 percent and is undoubtedly higher today. In 1971, the Graduate School of Business (GSB) at Stanford acquired a dedicated time-sharing system to replace the time-sharing services provided by the Stanford Computation Center (SCC). A study of computer usage in the GSB and of the impact of the dedicated time-sharing system was con- ducted; detailed results may be found in. …


Bounded Energy-Finite Solutions Of Delta U=Pu On A Riemannian Manifold, Young Koan Kwon, J. Schiff, L. Sario Jan 1971

Bounded Energy-Finite Solutions Of Delta U=Pu On A Riemannian Manifold, Young Koan Kwon, J. Schiff, L. Sario

Research Collection School Of Accountancy

The classification of Riemann surfaces with respect to the equation Δu = Pu (P^O, PΞ£ 0) was initiated by Ozawa [13] and further developed by L. Myrberg [8,9], Royden [14], Nakai [10,11], Sario-Nakai [15], Nakai-Sario [12], Glasner-Katz [3], and Kwon-Sario [7].
