For example, recently Zaric and Brandeau developed a resource allocation model for HIV prevention programs [ 23].
The present study qualitatively illustrated how different health policy actors react to decision-making dilemmas about resource allocation, for example whether to give priority to cost-effective non-life saving interventions, or cost-ineffective life saving interventions.
Use of indirect methods could have important implications for decisions about resource allocation: for example, non-lifesaving treatments are relatively more favoured in comparison with lifesaving interventions than when using direct methods.
In Australia, a threshold of AUD $40,000 per year of life is often used by Australian resource allocation committees, for example, the Medical Services Advisory Committee and the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee (George et al. 2001).
For example, resource allocation might require changes in the level or composition (or both) of taxes, but those changes might bear heavily on low-income families thus upsetting redistributive goals.
Figure 5 illustrates an example resource allocation for a BS with three RS in its cell.
In addition, OFDM has several favorable properties like high spectrum efficiency, robustness to channel fading, multipath delay spread tolerance, efficient digital signal processing implementation, and granular resource allocation, etc. (for example, in [4, 5]).
Research can highlight gaps in resource allocation for research, for example in relation to health research priorities and in terms of equitable allocation of research resources to address the needs of different populations [ 33, 55].
The field of health care priority setting and resource allocation is a good example of an applied health services research field that should produce findings aligned with the needs of the end users.
Preference handling, resource allocation problems are another examples of the need for balanced compromises between several conflicting objectives.
