:" Now if Q ( x ) is a partial recursive predicate, there is a decision procedure for Q ( x ) on its range of definition, so the law of the excluded middle or excluded " third " ( saying that, Q ( x ) is either t or f ) applies intuitionistically on the range of definition.

Essentially, the question presented for decision in the present Daytime Skywave proceeding is whether our decision ( in 1938-1939 ) to assign stations on the basis of daytime conditions from sunrise to sunset, is sound as a basis for AM allocations, or whether, in the light of later developments and new understanding, skywave transmission is of such significance during the hours immediately before sunset and after sunrise that this condition should be taken into account, and some stations required to afford protection to other stations during these hours.

They serve not only as spokesmen for their areas, but they also contribute to top-level decision making.

It is too easy for the inexperienced person to make a quick judgment of a few values of the area and base a decision on these alone.

There are two sides of a coin for this decision.

In considering roleplaying for analysis we enter a more complex area, since we are now no longer dealing with a simple over-all decision but rather with the examination and evaluation of many elements seen in dynamic functioning.

Although the government was probably prepared for elections by mid-1958, the first decision was no doubt made more difficult as party strife multiplied.

The problem arises, if it does arise, when the educator has to make a choice or a decision within the area of his professional competence, but which bears some relation to the social structure.

That is why it is so very important that ethical analysis keep clear the problem of decision as to `` permitted '' effects, and not draw back in fright from any conceivable contingency or suffer paralysis of action before possibilities or probabilities unrelated, or not directly morally related, to what we can and may and must do as long as human history endures.

A partial formalization of the concept began with attempts to solve the Entscheidungsproblem ( the " decision problem ") posed by David Hilbert in 1928.

In complexity theory, the satisfiability problem ( SAT ) is a decision problem, whose instance is a Boolean expression written using only AND, OR, NOT, variables, and parentheses.

The Cook – Levin theorem states that the Boolean satisfiability problem is NP-complete, and in fact, this was the first decision problem proved to be NP-complete.

To solve this instance of the decision problem we must determine whether there is a truth value ( TRUE or FALSE ) we can assign to each of the variables ( x < sub > 1 </ sub > through x < sub > 4 </ sub >) such that the entire expression is TRUE.
