Instead of designating anyone scoring above 65 — the passing grade — as "qualified," it adopted a second benchmark of 89 and decided to hire only from this "well qualified" category.
Recently, a first benchmark test for small molecules was provided as part of the CASMI challengea.
This BSN-MAC protocol is used as a second reference benchmark besides the standard de facto 802.15.4 MAC, since it is a state-of-the-art energy-saving MAC proposal for BSN environments.
From the economics perspective, the Global Damage Potential can be considered as a first-best benchmark metric since it ensures that the trade-off between different forcing agents is efficient.
As a second test, we used the DUD benchmark [55] to asses the ability of the docking algorithm to rank active ligands.
For instance, the water-air system applied in the second benchmark is formulated as h_{G}= h_{G}^{air}X_{G}^{air}+ h_{G}^{w_{vap}}X_{G}^{w_{vap}} (42).
European radiology teaching and research are affected by these worldwide curriculum innovations that move away from a conventional (science-based) curriculum toward a modern curriculum (i.e., problem-based and outcomes-based curriculum) as confirmed in a first European benchmark study that was carried out in 2008.
Helen Szoke, chief executive of Oxfam Australia, said her organisation "would have put the reduction of poverty as the first benchmark" in the revamped aid program and was "cautious" about the role of the private sector.
This is true in particular for datasets with underlying tree-like organization, such sets of genomic profiles of individual cancer cells, of the same type as our third benchmark case above.
We selected seven benchmark methods from the wide variety of appearance-based gait recognition methods to validate the proposed database, which are summarized as follows: The first benchmark used the direct matching method [15], which is a non-training-based approach that calculates the dissimilarity using the L2 distance between two GEIs.
