These populations lived in a " more or less constant post-traumatic state " and the dreaming brain constructed the threat-simulation technique as an evolutionary tool, resulting in improved threat-avoidance skills and, thus, a higher probability of survival.

In each case the number-crunching skills and the simulation techniques will help the Energy Department as it tries to maintain the nuclear-weapons stockpile without conducting actual nuclear explosions, as is called for by the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty.

A particular notable contribution of Prof . Rode's research is the development and application of hybrid quantum mechanical / molecular mechanical ( QM / MM ) simulation techniques, focusing on a broad range of problems in solution chemistry.
44.
In 1972, researchers at "'The Institute for the Future "'added time-series instead of " Slice of Time ", Norman Dalkey used conditional probabilities, and Julius Kane developed " KSIM ", a simulation technique that used interactions between time series variables rather than events.
45.
The agency says the tests are devised to answer specific questions and " to build confidence in the system that we are working to design . " Although individual tests are expensive, Lehner said, fewer are necessary than with missiles of years past because of advanced modeling and simulation techniques.
46.
The objective of the network is to demonstrate how the use of modern simulation techniques through a deeper and more qualitative description of the underlying biological, pathological and pharmacological processes can lead to a more rational drug development process and an improved treatment of diseases such as cancer diabetes and depression.
47.
Other promising field-theoretic simulation techniques have been developed recently, but they either still lack the proof of correct statistical convergence, like e . g . the Complex Langevin method ( Ganesan 2001 ), and / or still need to prove their effectiveness on systems, where multiple saddle points are important ( Moreira 2003 ).

The simulation technique used is a next event "'Monte Carlo Simulation "', with full array of building blocks, animation, graphical interface, unlimited hierarchical decomposition, full connectivity and interactivity with other programs, library based, build in compiled Excel for input data, which makes it easy to structure data, extract data, running sensitivities and customize results presentation.
