For the unbounded parallel-batching machine scheduling problem of minimizing the maximum lateness, denoted 1|p-batch|L_(max), a dynamic programming algorithm with time complexity O(n^2) is well known in the literature.Later, this algorithm is improved to be an O(n log n) algorithm. In this note, we present another O(n log n) algorithm with simplifications on data structure and implementation details.展开更多

While the performance characteristics of these different appro-aches have been evaluated by multiple studies, there is not, as of yet, a single, universally recommendedalgorithm for syphilis testing. To clarify the currently available options for syphilis testing, this update will summarize the clinical challenges to diagnosis, review the specific performance characteristics of treponemal and non-treponemal tests, and fnally, summarize select studies published over the past decade which have evaluated these approaches. Specifcally, this review will discuss the traditional and reverse sequence syphilis screening algorithms commonly used in the United States, alongside a discussion of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control syphilis algorithm.
