Despite differences in model designs and structures of the cost-effectiveness analyses, it was mostly possible to replicate the results published by different authors in different countries like USA, UK, and Canada and identify variables responsible for differences between ICERs using a reference model approach [ 39].
In this paper, the structure of the cost matrix is examined to provide improved methods of hardware implementation.
These nonintegral values at the output of the linear relaxation of the enhanced formulation can be primarily attributed to the structure of the cost function and constraints.
Therefore, the structure of the cost function may have some tunable coefficients which allow the network supervisor to regulate according to actual situations. .

The structure of the cost effectiveness model is presented in Figure 1.
Second, given the structure of the costs involved in implementing a roadside survey, the incremental cost of adding a few extra questions to existing forms is fairly small, provided they can be asked and answered quickly.
This paper presents the basic structure of the costing model and some basic results.
The aim of this analysis was to clarify (1) the structure of the costs in the ICU, (2) the revenue needed to cover total costs, and (3) the necessary operating volume (number of patient days) for the ICU per year.
However, the structure of the costs are very different: the cost of the preventive campaigns is 1.7 times that of the reactive campaigns, but there are no costs associated with cases under the preventive strategy as no MenA cases occurred during this time period.
Given the prior performance of the model and its components (Schymanski et al. 2007, 2008 a, b, 2009 b ; Lei et al. 2008), we assume that the structure of the costs and benefits of the optimized vegetation properties is captured adequately despite the simplifications.
