This paper surveys the recent literature on CEO compensation. The rapid rise in CEO pay over the past 30 years has sparked an intense debate about the nature of the pay-setting process. Many view the high level of CEO compensation as the result of powerful managers setting their own pay.

Dosage Compensation: How to Be Compensated…Or Not? [PDF]
Diverse dosage compensation mechanisms have evolved across species to equalize gene expression between sexes and between the sex chromosomes and autosomes. New results show that two opposite modes of dosage compensation can occur within one species, the monarch butterfly.

Factors modulating 99mTc‐MAA planar lung dosimetry for 90Y radioembolization
Abstract Purpose To investigate the accuracy and biases of predicted lung shunt fraction (LSF) and lung dose (LD) calculations via 99mTc‐macro‐aggregated albumin (99mTc‐MAA) planar imaging for treatment planning of 90Y‐microsphere radioembolization.

Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.

Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy
Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.

General dynamic recovery for compensating CSP [PDF]
Compensation is a technique to roll-back a system to a consistent state in case of failure. Recovery mechanisms for compensating calculi specify the order of execution of compensation sequences. Dynamic recovery means that the order of execution is determined at runtime.
