You strike me as someone who has never actually watched Robertson's "Hypothetical" program all the way through.
Consider, for example, this seemingly simple, hypothetical programming task: "Add a feature to Google Maps that allows a user to place a simulated boat on a river and have it float downstream".
This paper presents a cost-effectiveness and efficiency analysis of the NVASP and of a hypothetical program of vitamin A fortification of wheat flour that was conducted to inform policymakers as to how to modify the program.
In an analysis using conservative assumptions, we found that a hypothetical program to ameliorate disparities in influenza vaccination rates has a moderate to high likelihood of being cost-effective.
Referring in his remarks to a hypothetical program he called "Prosperity Pacts," Mr. Romney talked about his desire to use aid initiatives, like the ones President Clinton's group supports, to encourage lasting change in the Middle East and other developing regions.
For example, when a simulated program developed with the aid of Demo is run, not only does the cursor flash at the appropriate points just as one expects it to, but the disk drive can be made to grind away, its light properly luminous for the duration of the appropriate ersatz operation, say the loading of a hypothetical program or the retrieving of imaginary data.
For the four hypothetical program activities in our example, the estimates of the averted costs ranged from $165,030 to $575,360.
We used the time to discard distributions in a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate wastage rates in a hypothetical program setting.
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emission trading related to the Title IV Acid Rain Program (U.S. EPA 2007) resulted in greater health benefits than a hypothetical program without trading, based on the geographic distribution of controls (Burtraw and Mansur 1999).
This hypothetical program was assumed to have immediate coverage of 95% (compared with the current/routine coverage of 72%) and the same age-specific annual rate as the base case scenario.
In an evaluation of this hypothetical program, more movement from pre to post on the help-seeking subscale than the social distance subscale would be an indicator that the program was more effective at addressing the former aspect of stigma than the latter.
