Dissaggregation of deviations in cost analysis
Omega, 1981Abstract The decisions on investigation of cost deviations have been generally discussed in the cost control literature assuming deviations are monitored and reported at a certain level of aggregation. This paper focuses on the relationship between the level of aggregation of the reporting system and the effectiveness of the investigating decisions ...

A Process Deviation Analysis – A Case Study
2012Processes are not always executed as expected. Deviations assure the necessary flexibility within a company, but also increase possible internal control weaknesses. Since the number of cases following such a deviation can grow very large, it becomes difficult to analyze them case-by-case.

Colliding stacks: A large deviations analysis
Random Structures & Algorithms, 1991AbstractWe analyze the performance of a prototypical scheme for shared storage allocation: two initially empty stacks evolving in a contiguous block of memory of size m. We treat the case in which the stacks are more likely to shrink than grow, but with the probabilities of insertion and deletion allowed to depend arbitrarily on stack height as a ...

Analysis of deviations and delays in aid disbursements [PDF]
The study seeks to identify donor-specific factors that cause donors to delay aid disbursement, and to apply a double standard in dealing with the non-compliance of a recipient with regard to aid conditionalities, a practice that promotes uncertainty in the receipt of aid.

A Large Deviations Analysis of Scheduling in Wireless Networks
IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2006In this correspondence, we consider a cellular network consisting of a base station and N receivers. The channel states of the receivers are assumed to be identical and independent of each other. The goal is to compare the throughput of two different scheduling policies (a queue-length-based (QLB) policy and a greedy policy) given an upper bound on the

Beam Deviation Errors in Ellipsometric Measurements; an Analysis
Applied Optics, 1974The types of error produced by beam deviation in the optical elements of an ellipsometer are examined. It is shown that there are two types of error that may be significant-systematic errors due to a variation in the plane of incidence and in the angle of incidence at the specimen and errors due to the combined effects of beam displacement and ...

On the capacity of ergodic channels: A large deviation analysis
9th International Conference on Communications and Networking in China, 2014The convergence behavior of capacity of ergodic channels is of great importance for the performance analysis of communication systems. This paper presents a fundamental study on the convergence rate of capacity of ergodic channels on the basis of large deviation theory.

Geometric morphometric contribution to septal deviation analysis
Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2019The nasal septum presents inter-individual conformational variations. The objectives of this study were to establish a validated protocol for nasal septum analysis using geometric morphometrics (GM) to establish a classification of septal deviations (SD).This was a retrospective study including two groups of patients: patients operated on by ...

Archives of Neurology, 1975
In 100 patients with ocular skew deviation, the lesion was usually on the side of the lower eye, particularly when patients with internuclear ophthalmoplegia were excluded, but exceptions were sufficiently frequent to diminish the clinical lateralizing value of skew.
