Group purchasing: Evaluating groups

American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 1987
Factors that should be considered when a pharmaceutical group purchasing program is being evaluated are discussed and presented in checklist format. The ability to purchase at maximum effectiveness is critical in today's healthcare environment. There are a number of group purchasing programs in which pharmacists participate, and this business is in a ...

A Combined Algorithm for Cleaning Abnormal Data of Wind Turbine Power Curve Based on Change Point Grouping Algorithm and Quartile Algorithm

IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy, 2019
There exist plenty of outliers in power curve of wind turbines, which is not conducive to the follow-up information mining. Improving the wind power curve data quality of wind turbines has great engineering value.

Groups in groups

Proceedings of the 2010 ACM conference on Computer supported cooperative work, 2010
Online collaboration, in comparison to face-to-face collaboration, is advantageous in making multiparty teamwork possible at a very low cost. As multicultural multiparty collaboration becomes ubiquitous, it is crucial to understand how communication processes are shaped in the social and media environments that computer-mediated communication affords ...

Research methods in performance validity testing studies: Criterion grouping approach impacts study outcomes

Clinical Neuropsychologist, 2018
Objective: Performance validity test (PVT) research studies commonly utilize a known-groups design, but the criterion grouping approaches within the design vary greatly from one study to another.

{Groups, {Groups, {and More Groups}}}

1993
The concept of gathering text into groups allows TEX input files to be greatly simplified. A new group is started by the character {and terminated by the character}. Changes made within a group will lose their effect when the group terminates. So, for example if {\bf three boldface words} appears in your text, the opening brace starts the group, the ...

A clustering based grouping method of nearly zero energy buildings for performance improvements

Applied Energy, 2019
Collaborations among nearly zero energy buildings (nZEBs) (e.g. renewable energy sharing) can improve nZEBs’ performance at the community level. To enable such collaborations, the nZEBs need to be properly grouped.

Training groups, encounter groups, sensitivity groups and group psychotherapy.

California medicine, 2010
Descriptions and comparison of group therapies and the new group procedures (training groups and sensitivity groups-an outgrowth of the so-called Laboratory Movement methods of the mid-1930's) have been provided for the better understanding of non-psychiatric physicians. A group leader must have proper training and must help his group in its search for

Automorphism Groups of Nilpotent Groups

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, 1989
Let \({\mathfrak X}\) denote the class of all finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups G such that the derived factor group G/G' is torsion- free. For G in \({\mathfrak X}\), let Aut *(G) denote the group of automorphisms of G/G' induced by the automorphism group of G. If G/G' has rank n and we choose a \({\mathbb{Z}}\)-basis for G/G' then Aut *
