	NWHSU-Effort Certification
		An Effort Report will be completed and signed by each faculty member and professional staff member working on a federally-funded project, provided that the approved grant, contract, or cooperative agreement commits University personnel time to the project, regardless whether such time is paid by external funds or is an unpaid contribution, i.e., cost-sharing.
		Effort Reports will be completed near the end of each term and will document the percentage distribution of effort expended during the same term.
		Effort devoted to sponsored projects must be the determining factor for charging the appropriate salaries and wages to sponsored projects.

	Software and IT Measurement Systems: Effort Accounting
		Effort accounting is needed in software and IT for the simple reason that labor is generally the most important controllable element of cost.
		It also may combine effort data with defect count data to calculate average effort required to find and/or fix a defect, or combine effort data with a count of support requests to calculate average effort required to service a support request.
		Effort accounting systems are often used for purposes unrelated to process improvement – e.g., for payroll or for benefits such as sick and vacation day use.

	Estimating Remaining Effort
		Finally, the estimated effort of a conjunction is the sum of the estimated effort of the conjuncts, while the estimated effort of a disjunction is the estimated effort of the disjunct with minimal cost (not effort).
		The main difference between heuristic cost and estimated effort of a plan is that estimated effort assigns the value 1 instead of 0 to literals that can be unified with an initial condition.
		Estimated effort is not only useful as a plan ranking heuristic, but also for heuristic flaw selection as we will soon see.

	ASB: FULL AND PARTIAL-EFFORT BASEBALL PITCHING (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		The conditions were: 100% effort from a standard-height 10" mound, 75% effort from a 10" mound, 50% effort from a 10" mound, 180' crow-hop throw, 120' crow-hop throw, 60' crow-hop throw, 100% effort from a 13" mound.
		At 75% effort, pitchers produced approximately 90% of the velocity and 85% of the force and torque as produced during full-effort.
		Although there were some differences in mechanics, pitching with reduced effort appears to be useful for a pitcher in training or rehabilitation who does not want to overload his arm.

		Before ECRT will process a statement, it audits the information to make sure that payroll and cost sharing percentages match the effort percentages, i.e., if a researcher is paid $15000 on one account and $15000 on another account, then the effort for both accounts is 50%.

	An Empirical Study of Effort Estimation during Project Execution (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		For example, after the requirements phase, the requirements specification is available and the question is whether the knowledge regarding the number of requirements helps in improving the effort estimation of the project.
		Second, the objective is to study how the effort estimations evolve as a software project is performed.The analysis is based on data from 26 projects.
		The prediction models were then evaluated, and it is concluded that it is difficult to improve effort estimations during project execution, at least if the initial estimate is fairly good.

	CI Reader Volume 2 Chapter 1
		The Inspector General remained especially critical of the fact that such centralized direction of the counterintelligence effort within the zone of interior was in direct violation of basis command principles for the US Army.
		He claimed, however, that known or suspected Communist personnel had not proved to be any source of difficulty and were loyally supporting the war effort, so there seemed little justification for not using their services to the utmost of individual capacities.
		Nevertheless, it must be granted that a definite need had been shown early in the war for decentralizing the departmental counterintelligence effort within the zone of interior and permitting other staff groups or field agencies to undertake as many operational security tasks as possible.

		Clinton talked about making government "smarter, not bigger." Gore never mentioned his own role in the "reinventing government" initiative, and boasted an enormous policy agenda that added up to a message that he wanted to expand government as an end in itself.
		While Gore got killed by his positioning and the lack of a compelling message, Kerry got killed by the lack of a compelling message and by those personal characteristics--distorted and exaggerated by GOP propaganda--that made him seem alien to southern voters.
