Physician productivity, practice expense, resource allocation, facilities, staff, and malpractice are variables in medical practice profitability.
Normally, greater resource allocation will incur a greater expense; therefore, we have a trade-off between the time to complete an activity and its cost (a function of the assigned resource).
In addition, the simulations confirm that with increasing concavity the utility-based resource allocation strategy achieves fairness at the expense of a decreasing throughput performance.
From this perspective, perenniality is closely associated with greater resource allocation to growth and somatic maintenance at the expense of current reproduction.
We allocated investments under two resource allocation scenarios: a climate-adapted allocation and a climate-neutral allocation.
Results are consistent with resource allocation models of PTSD, which suggest that PTSD is characterized by attentional bias to threat stimuli at the expense of attention to emotionally neutral information.
Resource allocation supports the development of balanced service systems and is not directed to acute health care at the expense of prevention, comprehensive primary, and community services.
The time and expense required to develop a high-grade certification process are considerable and do not warrant resource allocation for a skill that is of importance to only small group of clinicians.
While more traditional resource allocation techniques pursue the optimization of the network's performance in terms of throughput, which usually comes at the expense of battery life, an energy-efficient resource allocation aims at the maximization of performance measures that take into account the trade-off between achieving a high throughput and saving as much battery power as possible.
Anther and ovary sizes (length and width) were included as the measures of resource allocation that may be associated with seed production through a possible trade-off, i.e., setting many seeds at the expense of anther and ovary development.
