collections of servers (up to 15 thousand) for different classes of applications over a period of approximately six months. Those observations allow us to evaluate opportunities for maximizing the use of the deployed power capacity of datacenters, and assess the risks of over-subscribing it. We find that even

An important part of the application of sociotechnical systems theory (STS) is the development of methods, tools and techniques to assess human factors and ergonomics workplace requirements. We focus in this paper on describing and evaluating current STS methods for workplace safety, as well

Existing literature highlights a critical gap between science and practice in clinical psychology. The internship year is a ‘‘capstone experience’’; training in methods of scientific evaluation should be integrated with the development of advanced clinical competencies. We provide a rationale

It is expedient to extend the presented methodology for scientific analysis to other organism systems. Main Text: The logic and practice of biomedical research in recent decades

Herein lies the ultimate knowledge translation gap and challenge in 21st century health care. Although lifestyle modification has long appeared

Abstract Recent gains in microfinance have yet to reach the majority of the rural poor in developing countries. Additionally, a market gap exists for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) caught between microfinance and corporate banking. Standard banking practices for analyzing risk

they are regressive. This may in part be because of a lack of conceptual assessment tools to evaluate and construct counter arguments, or the practical skills to investigate tests, test use, and deal with intended changes. 2 The second major reason is the rapid expansion of the use of language tests as part

Background: Pragmatic randomised controlled trials (PRCTs) aim to assess intervention effectiveness by accounting for ‘real life ’ implementation challenges in routine practice. The methodological challenges of PRCT implementation, particularly in primary care, are not well understood. The Kanyini

was evaluated using national processes based on standard check lists. The data gathered was triangulated with structured observations carried out in the field, and the results were analyzed to determine the problems faced by both teachers and students and the limitations and opportunities for positive

Before the nation can successfully implement better assessment practices, it must first reject the incorrect assumptions and flawed logic of No Child Left Behind (NCLB). To ensure effective education reform, including high-quality assessment, the Administration must overhaul NCLB, its draft
