Efficient Simulation Budget Allocation for Ranking the Top m Designs
Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2014 We consider the problem of ranking the top m designs out of k alternatives. Using the optimal computing budget allocation framework, we formulate this problem as that of maximizing the probability of correctly ranking the top m designs subject to the ...

A Risk Allocation Approach to Optimal Exchange Rate Policy [PDF]
We derive the optimal exchange rate policy for a small open economy subject to terms-of-trade shocks. Firm owners and workers are risk averse but workers more so.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Despite well‐described biologic causes, the public views unhealthy lifestyle choices as the primary cause of gout. This study investigated how causal beliefs about gout influence the public's views about its management. Methods In a randomized study, 201 members of the public viewed one of two 2‐minute videos about gout.

Incremental rate maximisation power loading with BER improvements [PDF]
, 2010 This paper aims to maximise the rate over a MIMO link using incremental power and bit allocation. Two different schemes, greedy power allocation (GPA) and greedy bit allocation (GBA), are addressed and compared with the standard uniform power allocation (

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective To explore whether higher body fat and lower lean mass are associated with greater pain and worse patient‐reported physical function in individuals with hip osteoarthritis (OA). A secondary aim was to examine whether pain and patient‐reported physical function differ according to four body composition profiles: high body fat, low lean mass ...
