Two Statistical Analysis System (SAS) macros are presented that perform the modified principal components approach of L. R. Tucker (1966) to modeling generalized learning curves analysis up to a rotation of the components. Three SAS macros are described that rotate the factor patterns to have characteristics Tucker considered desirable. (SLD)

Several computer programs were developed to solve various versions of the quadratic capacitated facilities location problem. Matrices, which represent various business costs, are defined for the factors of sites, facilities, customers, commodities, and production units. The objective of the program is to find an optimization matrix for the lowest…

The results of six major projects are discussed including a comprehensive mathematical and statistical analysis of the problems caused by errors of measurement in linear models for assessing change. In a general matrix representation of the problem, several new analytic results are proved concerning the parameters which affect bias in…
