Estimates could have been computed on the national level only (Tomppo et al. 2014).
Alternatively, the structural role scores could have been computed by simply adding the total degree centrality and betweenness centrality score components (i.e., the multiplicands).
Although we could have instead computed the average industry-country level of tangibility to increase the variability of the IV, that variable may not be exogenous, since it may be influenced by the country's institutional framework.
Note that the expected value of the packet delay lower bound could have been computed using the Linear Programming formulation as adopted in the full knowledge-based approach in [28].
Given the ability to calculate image speed distributions from a priori assumptions about the motion of 3-D objects [13], the question arises whether the empirical data we extracted from the simulation could have been computed simply from geometrical principles alone.
The Z-scores could have been computed using BMI, but this would not have fully resolved the problem as BMI was correlated with height (ρ = 0.3, P value <0.001), with 19% of its variance explained by height.
The exact solution could have been computed with linear optimization, but the number of candidates for an ambiguous toponym can be very high, e.g. in our database San Jose has 676 possible coordinates.
Who knows what he could have contributed to computing in the later years of his life?
Another straightforward approach could have been to compute the top and bottom percentiles but this would include initial sorting of the data based on scores which is an expensive operation in a distributed environment.
Whatever decisions the government makes could have vast implications for computing.
