If there were no West Berlin problem, imperialist quarters would have invented an excuse for stepping up the armaments race to try to solve the internal and external problems besetting the United States and its NATO partners.

This problem of fair and equitable assessment of value is a difficult one to solve in that the determination of fair valuation is dependent on local assessors, who in general are non-professional and part-time personnel taking an individualistic approach to the problem.

Need for service is here to stay -- and the problem is going to be tougher to solve in the sixties.

To solve the problem of the wheat grains spilling on the floor and getting underfoot, a ball of maple syrup boiled to candy consistency was invented to hold the grains.

`` Buster would solve that quarterback problem just as we head that way ''.

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

Chaitin prefaces his definition with: " I'll show you can't prove that a program is ' elegant '"— such a proof would solve the Halting problem ( ibid ).

Standard addition can be applied to most analytical techniques and is used instead of a calibration curve to solve the matrix effect problem.

This is a problem that the government is trying to solve by linking the liberation of new technologies ( such as WiMax or PLC ) only tied with compromises on extension of the service to less populated regions.

However, beyond this theoretical significance, efficient and scalable algorithms for SAT that were developed over the last decade have contributed to dramatic advances in our ability to automatically solve problem instances involving tens of thousands of variables and millions of constraints.

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.

Although this problem seems easier, it has been shown that if there is a practical ( randomized polynomial-time ) algorithm to solve this problem, then all problems in NP can be solved just as easily.

A better understanding of dark energy is likely to solve the problem of the ultimate fate of the universe.

These models solve the horizon problem through an expanding epoch well before the Big Bang, and then generate the required spectrum of primordial density perturbations during a contracting phase leading to a Big Crunch.

This idea arose from proposals in the 1980s, by Christof von der Malsburg and Wolf Singer, that gamma oscillations could solve the so-called binding problem, by linking information represented in different parts of the brain into a unified experience.

One can solve this problem by granting some degree of moral relativism and accepting that norms may evolve over time and, therefore, one can criticize the continued enforcement of old laws in the light of the current norms.

In principle, it is possible to solve the Schrödinger equation in either its time-dependent or time-independent form, as appropriate for the problem in hand ; in practice, this is not possible except for very small systems.

He doesn't intend to solve the problem of other minds ( for machines or people ) and he doesn't think we need to.

This can help solve the problem of fitting images into displays, and, furthermore, suggest what short-cuts could be used in the rendering simulation, since certain subtleties won't be noticeable.

Researcher David Pearson says trials run in laboratories and in remote parts of the Kimberley region of WA are looking promising, although the baits will not solve the cane toad problem altogether.

Paired with the problem are any number of algorithms that can be used to solve the problem, that is, to calculate the solution.
