The Timely Allocation of Resources in the Concurrent Design of New Products
Journal of Engineering Design, 1997Co-Authors: W.p. Lewis, Liu CangshanAbstract:SUMMARY The paper reports an investigation into decision-making in new product design and development, with particular attention to the allocation of resources to ensure Maximum Effectiveness and efficiency of the development process. The operating characteristics of various design management tools are analyzed in the light of the needs of manufacturers to meet market requirements for performance and quality. The scope and diversity of the knowledge base required for successful product development is emphasized.

Effects of the model selected for the power curve on the site Effectiveness and the capacity factor of a pitch regulated wind turbine
Solar Energy, 2003Co-Authors: J.l. Torres, E. Prieto, A. García, M. De Blas, F. Ramirez, A. De FranciscoAbstract:The present work is based on the fact that site Effectiveness is a relevant value when analysing the suitability of a location for constant-speed wind turbines. An analytical expression is developed to calculate the said Effectiveness by means of a potential adjustment model to the ascending segment of the power curve in pitch regulated wind turbines. Upon analysis of the results obtained for Maximum Effectiveness in a given location, using both the potential model and the quadratic model applied in earlier studies, no significant differences were observed in wind conditions of interest for wind energy applications. Notwithstanding, when the cut-in wind speed was compared, corresponding to the Maximum Effectiveness values at the same location according to the two models indicated, noticeable differences were observed. It can therefore be deduced that, when selecting this design parameter, a careful study should be made in order to determine which model best fits the power curve of the wind turbine under analysis for a specific location.

Conundrums in screening for cancer
International journal of cancer, 2010Co-Authors: Anthony B. MillerAbstract:Screening for cancer has to be carefully organized for Maximum Effectiveness, and introduced in full understanding of the natural history of the disease. There are major potential harms as well as benefits from screening. The current state of art for breast, cervix and prostate cancer screening is reviewed, only for breast and cervix are policies of screening in the population justified.

Sepsis syndrome. New insights into its pathogenesis and treatment.
Infectious disease clinics of North America, 1991Co-Authors: Roger C. BoneAbstract:SUMMARY Recent insights into the pathogenesis of sepsis and its sequelae have opened up new approaches to treatment. For Maximum Effectiveness, however, treatment must be given as early as possible in the course of illness—but only to patients who are at high risk of developing shock. The definition of sepsis syndrome outlined in this article provides a method by which to identify such patients before the onset of shock.

Integrating synchronous and asynchronous internet distributed education for Maximum Effectiveness
Education and Information Technologies, 2007Co-Authors: J. Mark Pullen, Charles M. SnowAbstract:Distributed education delivered via the Internet is a growing practice, with most institutions offering at least course websites and many expanding to full course offerings and even online degree progams. There are two schools of thought with regard to delivery mode: the larger group has focused on asynchronous delivery, accessible at any time via webpages and interactive tutorials and quizzes, while a smaller group advocates synchronous delivery where students are online and interact during class time. This paper summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of the two delivery modes and describes our successful and growing experience of more than a decade using an open source synchronous delivery tool blended with a variety of asynchronous capabilities and classroom instruction. We conclude that a synergistic combination of the two modes with in-person instruction, designed to provide Maximum flexibility to the student within the constraints of the subject, offers the best support for student learning.
