Node renumbering is an important step in the solution of sparse systems of equations. It aims to reduce the bandwidth and profile of the matrix. This allows for the speeding up of the solution of the system or allows for the addressing of even larger systems than otherwise would be possible. Research on this topic dates to the late sixties. In most of these algorithms nodal degree is an important consideration. In the new algorithm, we consider the maximum difference in adjacent node numbers as ...

Although the use of intermediate clinical endpoint or surrogate (correlate) of protection (CoP) has increased over the years, the validation of CoP for high efficacy vaccine trials has remained a challenge due to sparse data and conventional statistical methods which are not adequate. Be it in the frequentist or the Bayesian world, the meta-analytic approach is a well accepted method of validation. However, the full joint bivariate models suffer computational issues. And there is a push for the ...
