Very cost effective bipartitions in graphs

AKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2015
For a graph G=(V,E) and a set of vertices S⊆V, a vertex v∈S is said to be very cost effective if it is adjacent to more vertices in V∖S than in S. A bipartition π={S,V∖S} is called very cost effective if both S and V∖S are very cost effective sets.

Cost, Effectiveness, and Cost-Effectiveness [PDF]

Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes, 2009
Pluck the goose so as to obtain the most feathers with the least hissing . — —Jean-Baptiste Colbert, Minister of Finance to King Louis XIV of France Incremental or marginal cost-effectiveness ratios are founded on a number of assumptions that weaken their suitability as a way to balance competing economic and clinical priorities. We therefore propose

The effectiveness of cost-effectiveness analysis in containing costs [PDF]

Journal of General Internal Medicine, 1998
Although cost-effectiveness analyses (CEAs) have been advocated as a tool to critically appraise the value of health expenditures, it has been widely hoped that they might also help contain health care costs. To determine how often they discourage additional expenditures, we reviewed the conclusions of recently published CEAs.A search of the Abridged ...
