Balancing risks

Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2006
Regulatory policies designed to reduce the health risk of environmental and/or synthetic chemicals generally aim for zero or negligible levels. Foods, on the other hand, especially those with a long history in the human diet, have been treated as essentially safe, even though they too contain various chemicals including nutrients.

Balancing the Balance

IIC - International Review of Intellectual Property and Competition Law, 2013
If court decisions and legislative activity are the bread and butter of legal academics, 2012 offered a gargantuan banquet to observers of the Canadian copyright scene: a series of amendments to the Copyright Act unlike anything that had been seen for 15 years and no less than six Supreme Court decisions.

Balancing weight-balanced trees

Journal of Functional Programming, 2011
AbstractA weight-balanced tree (WBT) is a binary search tree, whose balance is based on the sizes of the subtrees in each node. Although purely functional implementations on a variant WBT algorithm are widely used in functional programming languages, many existing implementations do not maintain balance after deletion in some cases. The difficulty lies

Balanced Allocations

SIAM Journal on Computing, 1999
Summary: Suppose that we sequentially place \(n\) balls into \(n\) boxes by putting each ball into a randomly chosen box. It is well known that when we are done, the fullest box has with high probability \((1 + o(1))\ln n/\ln \ln n\) balls in it. Suppose instead that for each ball we choose two boxes at random and place the ball into the one which is ...

Improving Balance

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1998
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that shoes made with a sole material that retains compressed thickness between steps (low resiliency) provide balance better than and comfort equal to shoes composed of high resiliency sole material. SETTING:

Balanced Loading

Operations Research, 1992
We develop a heuristic for a problem motivated by the loading of aircraft or trucks: pack blocks into a bin so that their center-of-gravity is as close as possible to a target point. Our heuristic either produces good solutions or else signals that none is possible.

Balanced observation

Nursing Standard, 1987
I would like to balance the observation 'Family doctors question wisdom of nursing reform proposals' (Nursing Standard week ending October 10,1987). Our reservations are about the 'here and now' based on the practical experience of Britain's 30,000 general practitioners which the General Medical Services Committee of the BMA represents. We believe that

Balance Machines: Computing = Balancing

2003
We propose a natural computational model called a balance machine. The computational model consists of components that resemble ordinary physical balances, each with an intrinsic property to automatically balance the weights on their left, right pans.

Balance perturbations

2018
Impairments of balance and gait leading to loss of mobility, falls, and disability are common occurrences in many neurologic conditions and with older age. Much of our current understanding about posture and balance control and its impairments has come from investigations of how healthy individuals and those with neurologic disorders respond to ...
