 Local analysis   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In mathematics, the term local analysis has at least twomeanings - both derived from the idea of looking at a problem relative to each prime number p first, and then later trying to integrate the information gained at each prime into a'global' picture.
In group theory, local analysis was started by the Sylow theorems, which contain significant information about the structure of a finite group G for each prime number p dividing the orderof G.
Some form of local analysis underlies both the Hardy-Littlewood circle method in analytic number theory, and the use of adelerings, making this one of the unifying principles across number theory.

 GaWC Research Bulletin 49
Her analysis is framed around the contention that contemporary discussions of world cities, postfordism and globalization have radically exaggerated the historical uniqueness of contemporary urban transformations, which can be understood more adequately, she argues, in the context of many centuries of interaction between world-scale economic processes and changing localized economic, social and political conditions.
Although the analysis of each of these phases is focused, most essentially, upon transformations at the local scale (which itself quickly expanded onto the regional or metropolitan scale as each city's population grew), Abu-Lughod expertly weaves accounts of shifts at other scales-especially the national and the global-into her historical analysis of each city.
Her analysis of each phase of development within the three cities explores a remarkably broad constellation of technological, infrastructural, social, political, economic and geographical transformations, from the initial socio-geographical conditions within which each city was first established to its subsequent evolution, expansion and continual transformation through diverse economic, demographic and political influences.

 ESP vol. 15 n.1 A Constructive Look at Follow Through Results
Although this analysis has a certain elegance, it clearly does not take full advantage of the information available; the "pooled" analysis used by Abt, which uses data on whole cohorts to calculate regression coefficients and at the same time includes dummy variables to take care of site-specific effects, is much superior in this respect.
Our overall strategy for use of analysis of covariance was as follows: recognizing that reasonable cases could be made for and against the use of this covariate or that, we would try various combinations and, in the end, would take seriously only those results that held up over a variety of reasonable covariate sets.
This analysis is conservative in the sense that it eliminates covariates for which there are substantial empirical and/or rational grounds for objection.

 Local Feature Analysis
The Local Feature Analysis method was developed by Dr. Joseph Atick, Dr. Paul Griffin, and Dr. Norman Redlich of the Visionics Corporation (Visionics, 1999).
Local Feature Analysis systems are not as sensitive to face deformities and lighting variations as the eigenface method.
Local Feature Analysis systems are capable of detecting a subject's presence within the camera field and can work from any distance as long as the camera is capable of focusing on the subject's head at long range.

 How Has Fiscal Impact Analysis Been Integrated Into Local Comprehensive Planning? - 1998 APA Proceedings   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Project analysis, which is focused on product mix, pricing, and absorption rates allows local governments to consider the marginal costs of a specific development when facing requests for approval of major projects through the zoning, special exception, or use permit processes.
Fiscal impact analysis was introduced into the planning processes not only to ensure due diligence related to the analysis of the costs of growth, but also because it "was a way of testing the implications of planning safely" (Avin).
Fiscal impact analysis was used to evaluate alternative countywide development scenarios related to the pattern and pace of development in the preparation of the new comprehensive plan.

The proof consists of a set of preliminary results followed by three parts: local analysis, characters, and generators and relations (Chapters IV, V, and VI of the paper).
Local analysis is the study of the centralizers and normalizers of non-identity p-subgroups, with Sylow's Theorem as the first main tool.
The main purpose of the book is to present a new version of the local analysis of the Feit-Thompson Theorem (Chapter IV of the original paper and its preliminaries).

 Notes on the local analysis of dynamical systems - introduction
Flow field analysts, for example, are often interested in vortices, that may be detected by local analysis of the underlying dynamical system.
Scientists that are interested in dynamical systems (and the local analysis of these systems) are confronted with a lot of terms, formulas, and definitions.
One example is the analysis of dynamical systems that are given as sampled data which do not allow the use of straightforward analytical approaches in most cases.

 Local-Global F E Analysis of Column-Supported Cooling Towers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In this paper, the local-global strategy is extend to column-supported reinforced concrete shell structures and applied to the nonlinear structural analysis of a column-supported reinforced concrete cooling tower shell with imperfections.
The stress distribution around the intersection with the columns is analyzed under an axisymmetric loading by the local global strategy and is verified by comparing with a previous analysis.
The local-global analysis produces similar results with those obtained by the general finite element analysis and brings considerable reduction of computing effort, so that this method is applicable to verify the safety the local behavior of the cooling tower within the limitation of present design requirements.

 Network Analysis Infrastructure
An analysis infrastructure has the objective to operate beyond the means of network measurements, as it is not good enough to create large data silos containing alot of measurement data that is hardly ever been looked at.
A non-real-time analysis assumes staggered data collection and data analysis phase, presumably followed by a phase where the analyzed data be transferred to a central location, and the data collection be restarted.
The analysis infrastructure itself is supported by miscellaneous monitors which collect data, with possibly some local analysis, and results sent to a centralized collector for further analysis and storage.

 mgrier's WebLog : Whole program vs. local analysis
This kind of problem is impossible to diagnose without either massive simulation tools which can do whole program analysis and simulation or, and this is my preference, reducing the problem to be a more local one about contract description and local analysis.
Local analysis is much easier since it's what every programmer does when reading code.
Both of these inhibit easy local analysis and both patterns must be stopped if we're going to make progress in making software more reliable.

 Applying Gap Analysis to Local Land Use Planning/UW-RSAL
Gap analysis was designed to be a proactive approach to conservation that identifies important habitat areas or species before they become threatened by habitat degradation or loss.
Although the data from WAGAP have been summarized and analyzed at a statewide level, this analysis was conducted using large-scale ecoregions and vegetation zones which are not easily applied to county land use planning and habitat conservation.
The intent of this work is to give local planners, elected officials, and the public tools they need to carefully consider biological conservation and biodiversity issues during their planning activities.
