The right to regulate is of particular importance for developing countries, as many of them do not yet have an optimal regulatory and institutional framework in place.

And what Bayes' rule says is, given my beliefs, the action should in some sense be optimal.

(c) The optimal organizational structure and adequate resource requirements

Many developing countries do not as yet have an optimal regulatory and institutional framework in place in respect of infrastructural services.

We got the results from that for the optimal engine.

But if you ask the average American what the optimal formula of longevity is, they probably couldn't tell you.

This arrangement is expected to ensure, in a coordinated manner, optimal use of the resources available to the Organization.

Table 2 suggests that the organization of the procurement function within the United Nations system is far from optimal.

The other combinations of challenge and skill become progressively less optimal.

Conventional wisdom suggests that the optimal organizational fine is as much as three times the actual gain from the cartel.

The optimal fine for this purpose is a multiple of the actual gain, because not every cartel is discovered and prosecuted, a factor that businesspeople take into account in deciding whether to engage in a cartel.

That is essential for a world order in which decisions are optimal and therefore acceptable, and the use of force minimal.

This lack of information may lead to a non optimal allocation of resources.

And he will, or she will, calculate the optimal design of the nozzle.

The final pitfall is excessively rapid depletion of oil or mineral deposits, in violation of optimal rates of saving, let alone environmental preservation.

Empirical studies suggest that there is an optimal level of migration that stimulates pursuit of higher education at home and spurs economic growth.

Establishing a large, standing international force under the UN s control is not feasible and may not be optimal. But providing incentives for governments to maintain such forces at a high level of alert and setting standards for equipment, training, and professionalism is something the UN can and should do.

So, an optimal diet is low in fat, low in the bad carbs, high in the good carbs and enough of the good fats.

The Committee believes that there is a need to examine translation requirements and methods with a view to reducing costs while ensuring optimal quality.

Any transition to peace may well prove ephemeral unless policymakers make political reconciliation and integration not optimal economic policies the bedrock priority. Despite its failures, the UN is probably still the best placed organization to oversee such efforts.

So the optimal temporal mix is what you get from the past past positive gives you roots. You connect your family, identity and your self.

The risk was a less than optimal allocation of scarce resources, or a waste of resources.

Regarding energy supply, Parties mentioned several options, including ensuring an optimal overall mix of energy sources.

The cooperation provided by UNMIK in the protection of witnesses has also been sometimes less than optimal.

Optimal strategic policies should be based on common welfare, gained through economic integration and redistributive social policies.

The primary objective of an asset and liability study is to identify the optimal mix of strategic assets (i.e., equities vs. fixed income) for a pension fund.

Indeed, recent work in economic theory shows that capital controls can actually be the optimal policy choice. For example, the new welfare economics of capital controls views unstable capital flows as negative externalities on recipient countries, which implies that regulations on cross border flows are the optimal tools to address market failures, improve market functioning, and enhance growth, not worsen it.

According to this view, if markets do not fully internalize all of the costs of private action environmental pollution is a classic example some optimal tax or subsidy supposedly can correct the problem. So, if a monopoly is restricting output and raising prices, regulate firms and industries.

This network will provide them with tools to support the optimal development of their potential and their social integration.

To meet these goals, the objective of peace should prevail over that of development if the two come into conflict. Often, optimal economic policies and best practices are not attainable or even desirable.

What you're watching is a design of a robotic red blood cell, and it does bring up the issue that our biology is actually very sub optimal, even though it's remarkable in its intricacy.

And the point about Bayesian decision theory is it gives you the mathematics of the optimal way to combine your prior knowledge with your sensory evidence to generate new beliefs.

Now of course there are other moves, but with vast computers we approximate and come close to the optimal solution.
