That calculation involves a standard piece of math, called a partial derivative, that can be easily embedded in a spreadsheet.
It can be shown that such an approach to runoff calculation involves a systematic error, always resulting in an over-estimation of the runoff amount.
The evaluation of the heat transfer coefficient by calculation involves a dimensional relationship obtained by geometry and determined thermal and flow conditions.
That means that for a calculation involving a trillion variables, "a supercomputer's going to take trillions of steps, and this algorithm will take a few hundred," says mechanical engineering professor Seth Lloyd, who along with Avinatan Hassidim, a postdoc in the Research Lab of Electronics, and the University of Bristol's Aram Harrow '01, PhD '05, came up with the new algorithm.
This calculation involves a comparison to a base set of genes (i.e. background or complement used as a reference) which in this case was comprised by all the genes in the dataset.
The calculations involved a range of costs connected to mothers, including bills for health and social care, lost earnings and the economic effect of suicide.
We could make a powerful case for putting the progressivist shoe on the other foot if we could show that reformists are wrong to deny that algorithm-based calculation involves an important kind of thinking.
For more complex PK/PD models, the calculation may be significantly slower, because each dose calculation involves an optimization (e.g., to assure that plasma concentration is above a certain threshold at a specific timepoint), and each evaluation step in the optimization requires numerical integration of the ordinary differential equations of the model.
