DPillar provides several nice properties and achieves the balance between topological scalability, network performance, and cost efficiency, which make it suitable for building large scale future data centers.
In the context of scheduling, we study social cost efficiency for a cost-sharing problem in which the service provider's cost is determined by the makespan of the served agents' jobs.
ABC is a cost accounting system, which: (i) allows cost efficiency without negative impact on the quality of services, (ii) provides information for management, and (iii) and aids with continuous quality improvements [ 12].
In this case, cost efficiency is necessarily consistently better than for more expensive per plot costs.
In many cases, privatizing war has allowed for greater military capacities and cost efficiency.
Previous cost-efficiency studies have shown that for simple models of cost and statistical performance, cost efficiency can be explicitly optimized.
(3) Further detail was provided on the group's previously announced cost efficiency program, which will see the firm take a one-off charge of $15 mn this year in return for what we estimate is a 7% saving in 2012.
Humanity was more important than cost efficiency, which explains his weakness for structural ingredients that demanded time-consuming craftsmanship: nautical rope, tightly woven cane, hand-polished Porsgrunn marble, braided leather and bleached-blond cane woven as finely as Belgian linen.
A high CMI score indicates that a given hospital has treated many patients with severe illnesses [ 23, 24]. 3. Cost Efficiency Index (CEI), which allows comparisons of the costs for treating the same disease categories between different hospitals.
For example, if pharmacy costs are not included when profiling costs or different case-mix classification systems are applied, this may affect a provider's calculated cost efficiency, which could in turn change his/her performance rating.
