	Health System Model Abstract (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The model was then used to explore different scenarios, including the introduction of capitation in the form of payment by number of patients rather than by treatments, epidemics, and policies for physician growth reduction.
		The five main sectors of the model were the nursing and physician work forces, hospitals, the patient population, and the insurance industry.
		The model was calibrated to 1970-1992 data from multiple sources at a national scale.

	Road Sedimentation Model - Abstract (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The structure of the model is flexible enough to easily adopt it to forest lands in northern California.
		The model was run on Caspar creek to evaluate the contribution of roads as part of the basin's sediment budget and to assist in identifying roads that produce relatively high amounts of sediment.
		Model results suggest that while the ratio of road sediment to background sediment is fairly high (2x), less than half of the roads are expected to contribute significant sediment to streams and an even smaller portion of road segments would be considered chronic sources.

	Model (abstract) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An abstract model (or conceptual model) is a theoretical construct that represents something, with a set of variables and a set of logical and quantitative relationships between them.
		Abstract models are used primarily as a reusable tool for discovering new facts, for providing systematic logical arguments as explicatory or pedagogical aids, for evaluating hypotheses theoretically, and for devising experimental procedures to test them.
		Esthetic considerations that may influence the structure of a model might be the modeller's preference for a reduced ontology, preferences regarding probabilistic models vis-a-vis deterministic ones, discrete vs continuous time etc. For this reason users of a model need to understand the model's original purpose and the assumptions of its validity.

	Using Model Checking to Debug Device Firmware (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The abstract models are small because they discard some of the details in the firmware that is irrelevant to the particular property being verified.
		The new version of the compiler generated abstract models that were used to identify several subtle bugs in the firmware.
		The abstract models generated by the ESP compiler omit some of the details that are irrelevant to the particular property being verified.

	UTR#17: Character Encoding Model
		Abstract characters that have the same GCGID in two different coded character sets are by definition the same character.
		In that case, the abstract character repertoire for the character map is the union of the repertoires covered by the coded character sets involved.
		ISO/IEC TR 19769 extends the model used in ISO C and C++ by recommending the use of two typedefs and a minimal extension to the support for character literals and runtime library.

	An introduction to Model Driven Architecture
		The models may be developed as a precursor to implementing the physical system, or they may be derived from an existing system or a system in development as an aid to understanding its behavior.
		Models are frequently used as the basis for discussion, communication, and analysis among teams within a single organization, or across multi-organizational projects.
		These models and their refinements are a critical part of the development methodology for situations that include refinements between models representing different aspects of the system, addition of further details to a model, or conversion between different kinds of models.

	Abstract Machine Model \| Sequoia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Sequoia's abstract machine model is very different to C's abstract machine model, with the most fundamental difference being the fact that rather than a single global memory space, there are multiple independent memory spaces exposed to the program.
		Note that the same physical processor may be modeled as being both a processing element and a control processor.
		The basic idea behind the Sequoia machine model is that there are a set of high-performance processing elements which are backed by a hierarchy of memory levels.

	Jena: Implementing the RDF Model and Syntax Specification
		The model is abstract because it is defined in terms of abstract mathematical structures such as triples and sets.
		As the abstract model is infinite, representations of the abstract data model may be finite and incomplete.
		Whilst in the formal model statements are not resources, it is convenient in an API to be able to represent use a statement to represent its reified statement.

	Writing Abstract Classes and Methods
		Similarly in object-oriented programming, you may want to model abstract concepts but you don't want to be able to create an instance of the concept.
		First you would declare an abstract class, GraphicObject, that provided all of the member variables and methods that were wholly shared by all of the subclasses.
		An abstract class is not required to have an abstract method in it.

	Stabeno and Hermann -- An eddy-resolving model -- Abstract (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Currents generated by an eddy-resolving, semispectral primitive equation model are compared with those measured by moored current meters (1989 and 1991) and satellite-tracked drifting buoys (1987) from Shelikof Strait, Alaska.
		The model reproduced many of the dominant circulation features, including the cross-sectional spatial structure of the Alaskan Coastal Current, the estuarine inflow at the bottom of the sea valley, and the mean transport.
		The first-mode empirical orthogonal functions of the model and of the observed data represent similar spatial structures and were significantly correlated in time.

	BioMed Central \| Abstract \| A model for empowerment of nursing in Iran
		Since empowerment is crucial to the role of nurses, a qualitative study was conducted and aimed at designing a model for empowering nurses in Iran.
		Implementing this model will not only define nursing roles, identify territories in the national healthcare system, but it will restructure nursing systems, sub-systems, and services.
		Currently no such model exists; therefore, restructuring of the nursing system, including its services, education and research subsystems is recommended.

	XML Protocol Abstract Model
		The WG developed the Abstract Model to provide a framework for evaluating candidate protocols and for reasoning about the development of the protocol itself.
		XMLP Operations are modelled as sequences of events crossing the layer boundary between XML Protocol Processors and XML Protocol Applications.
		The Correlation.MessageRef sub-field of the optional Correlation parameter on a XMLP_UnitData.receive primitive carries a local abstract reference to an XML protocol message that was previously forwarded by this intermediary XML protocol application.

	Locally-Funded Higher Education Institutions' Research Culture: A Proposed Model - Thesis Abstract \| Dissertation Thesis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The data gathered from this study were made as inputs in coming up with a model and a proposed institutional research capability-building program for locally-funded HEIs.
		Analyses of the data gathered from the questionnaire revealed all the grouped respondents’ very low evaluations of their respective institution’s institutional research program factors, material resource factors, research outputs, research dissemination and research utilization.
		Therefore, the researcher concluded that there is a compelling need for locally-funded HEIs in the Philippines to improve their institutional research capability, research output, research dissemination, and research utilization components, hence, the Proposed Model and Program for Institutional Research Capability-Building of all locally-funded HEIs in the country.

	a TBI Model Systems Abstract
		Based on the model, as well as results of prior research, a day treatment program called the Executive Plus Model was designed and is being tested currently.
		Using what is known as a “top-down structured approach,” the Executive Plus Model is based on participants learning and using a single strategy to solve problems in a number of different situations.
		Bottom Line: The research model described in the article is intended to provide better answers about what works and what doesn’t to help people improve executive functioning after TBI.

	5 An abstract decentralised model of mind
		The logical development of this kind of decentralisation is the model in Figure 5.3.
		One of the advantages of Brooks' model is that layer 2, for example, does not need to re-implement its own version of the wandering skill implemented in layer 1 - it can just allow layer 1 be executed when it wants to use it.
		Our abstract decentralised model of mind is a form of the drives model commonly used in ethology (dating back to Hull's work in the 1940s), where the "drive strength" or "importance variable" [Tyrrell, 1993] is equivalent to the W-value, and the highest one wins (the exact action of that agent is executed).

	Model Driven Architecture
		And as the need to describe a software system in abstract models and to generate big bunches of code is normally met in bigger enterprise oriented products, you will meet the requirement to generate a distributed system automatically.
		The basic principle behind MDA is to abstract your model from the platform to describe a general solution for your domain problems, independently from the concrete way to implement it in a specific platform.
		What the tools have to do is transform a more abstract model to a more specific model by adding/changing specific information derived from annotations in the more abstract model.

	WWW Resources on BSP Computing
		Abstract: We focus on two criticisms of Bulk Synchronous Parallelism (BSP): that delaying communication until specific points in a program causes poor performance, and that frequent barrier synchronisations are too expensive for high-performance parallel computing.
		Abstract: Parallel computers have been successfully deployed in many scientific and numerical application areas, although their use in non-numerical and database applications has been scarce.
		Abstract: We study the pragmatics of integrating collection types, that model a broad class of non-numerical applications, into the Bulk Synchronous Parallel (BSP) model which abstracts a diversity of parallel architectures using just four numerical parameters.

	XML Schema Part 1: Structures: XML Schema Abstract Data Model
		The abstract model for schemas is conceptual only, and does not mandate any particular implementation or representation of this information.
		Element declarations contribute to valid as part of model group valid, when their defaults and type components are checked against an element information item with a matching name and namespace, and by triggering identity-constraint definition valid.
		A model group definition is an association between a name and a model group, enabling re-use of the same model group in several complex type definitions.

	Citations: Data ow analysis is model checking of abstract interpretation - Schmidt (ResearchIndex) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Since a large part of bytecode veri cation is obviously an abstract interpretation (of a defensive JVM at the type level) it is natural to look at the remaining parts from a model checking perspective.
		Related works The body of research on the connection among model checking, abstract interpretation and data ow analysis is huge, even though this eld still represents a major challenge in formal methods.
		While the number of states is in nite or intractable, the number of abstract states can be reduced to nite or tractable provided that the abstract map is appropriate[2, 5] In this paper, we consider the case that states of the system have link structures.

		Thanks to the authors of these abstracts, Anthony D. Green, Geoffrey Pullum, and Arnold Zwicky for allowing their abstracts to be used; and thanks to Amy Dahlstrom and John Kingston for their efforts in selecting and annotating these abstracts.
		Note that the authors have signaled the importance of this new data by presenting it in a separate paragraph, highlighting the clause in which they point out there is no empty category, and stating explicitly that this (in their view) is the key to understanding the problem.
		Constructions such as VP ellipsis and wh- movement in which auxiliary reduction is impossible are ones in which only the accented form of auxiliaries may appear, due to syntactic conditions on accent patterns and on what may serve as the host for a clitic.

	Cover Pages: Dublin Core Metadata Initiative Publishes DCMI Abstract Model.
		The DCMI abstract model as represented in the UML diagram, definitions, and prose assertions defines both DCMI metadata descriptions and resources being described by DCMI metadata descriptions.
		The abstract model "indicates that each DCMI metadata description describes one, and only one, resource; this is commonly referred to as the one-to-one principle.
		The mission of of DCMI is to make it easier to find resources using the Internet through the following activities: (1) Developing metadata standards for discovery across domains, (2) Defining frameworks for the interoperation of metadata sets, and (3) Facilitating the development of community- or disciplinary-specific metadata sets that are consistent with [its other goals].

		The primary purpose of this document is to provide a reference model against which particular DC encoding guidelines can be compared.
		To function well, a reference model needs to be independent of any particular encoding syntax.
		Such a reference model allows us to gain a better understanding of the kinds of descriptions that we are trying to encode and facilitates the development of better mappings and translations between different syntaxes.
