Tackling teenage pregnancy in the UK (1999)
Journal Article
Scally, G., & Scally, G. (1999). Tackling teenage pregnancy in the UK. Lancet, 353(9171), 2178. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736%2899%2900208-1

The deleterious social and health outcomes of unplanned pregnancy have been recognized internationally for some time. In UK, birth rates among teenagers have not decreased; every year about 90,000 teenagers in England become pregnant. Of these, 7000... Read More about Tackling teenage pregnancy in the UK.

Location optimization for a group of tower cranes (1999)
Journal Article
Holt, G. D., Olomolaiye, P. O., Harris, F. C., Zhang, P., Harris, F. C., Olomolaiye, P., & Holt, G. D. (1999). Location optimization for a group of tower cranes. Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, 125(2), 115-122. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%290733-9364%281999%29125%3A2%28115%29

A computerized model to optimize location of a group of tower cranes is presented. Location criteria are balanced workload, minimum likelihood of conflicts with each other, and high efficiency of operations. Three submodels are also presented. First,...

The management of labour on high rise construction projects: An international investigation (1999)
Journal Article
Olomolaiye, P. O., Holt, G. D., Proverbs, D. G., Proverbs, D., Holt, G. D., & Olomolaiye, P. (1999). The management of labour on high rise construction projects: An international investigation. International Journal of Project Management, 17(3), 195-204. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0263-7863%2898%2900025-8

Results of a model based survey of contractors' planning engineers in France, Germany and the UK, indicates significant divergence in proposed labour management and hence, modern construction practices. For an identical in situ concrete building, Fre... Read More about The management of labour on high rise construction projects: An international investigation.

A semi-induced subgraph characterization of upper domination perfect graphs (1999)
Journal Article
Zverovich, V. E., Zverovich, I. E., Zverovich, I., & Zverovich, V. (1999). A semi-induced subgraph characterization of upper domination perfect graphs. Journal of Graph Theory, 31(1), 29-49. https://doi.org/10.1002/%28SICI%291097-0118%28199905%2931%3A1%3C29%3A%3AAID-JGT4%3E3.0.CO%3B2-G

Let β(G) and Γ(G) be the independence number and the upper domination number of a graph G, respectively. A graph G is called Γ-perfect if β(H) = Γ(H), for every induced subgraph H of G. The class of Γ-perfect graphs generalizes such well-known classe... Read More about A semi-induced subgraph characterization of upper domination perfect graphs.
