Although Blair was successful in urging caution in relation to the US operation in Falluja, the report states "the channel of communication between the prime minister and the president should have been reserved for the most strategic and intractable decisions.
In cases of intractable epistaxis, the decision to choose surgery or embolization is challenging because both modalities have similar high success rates.
Both techniques can be successful in controlling intractable epistaxis but the decision to use one versus the other can be challenging.
It is not surprising that its decision problem is intractable, since max-sum diversification is intractable itself [35].
The reactor crisis in Japan may have its roots in a cascading series of events, but the most intractable parts stem from decisions, or lack of them, about what to do with the spent fuel rods.
With the independence assumption removed, finding the optimal decision rule becomes intractable for the original decentralized detection problem [1, 6 8].
The non-linear nature of the supply function (arising from the light physics) and heterogeneous demand distribution make this decision problem truly intractable to solve.
This hybrid search space seems intractable, as each workload placement decision (seen as running in a virtual machine on a server) is required to answer many questions: can we host it internally?
Taken together, our findings suggest that APOE genotype may be important in decisions regarding timing of surgical intervention for intractable epilepsy, as well as in decisions regarding exposure of individuals to activities with high risk for TBI.
By applying stochastic shortest path method, we showed that it is intractable to make optimal coding decisions in the presence of random packet erasures.
