The dissection and consortium allocation of Apollo 17 lunar rocks from the boulder at station 7
The Apollo 17 astronauts removed four rocks samples to represent each of the lithologies they recognized in the boulder at station 7: sample 77215 from an off-white meter-sized block; sample 77075 from one of the thin dikes that cross the off-white block; 77115 from the blue-gray rock adjacent to the off-white block and apparently continuous with thin dikes that cross the block; sample 77135 of the tan-gray or green-gray vesicular rock adjacent to the blue-gray (77115) rock. A consortium of investigators has been organized to study the samples. Each sample shows a number of lithologic types in terms of clasts (or xenoliths) and matrices. A table shows how subsamples have been allocated for consortium study. Maps and photographs show the relations between subsample locations and lithologies for the two more dissected samples, 77115 and 77135.

Scheduling language and algorithm development study. Volume 1, phase 2: Design considerations for a scheduling and resource allocation system
Data and analyses related to a variety of algorithms for solving typical large-scale scheduling and resource allocation problems are presented. The capabilities and deficiencies of various alternative problem solving strategies are discussed from the viewpoint of computer system design.

Patrol force allocation for law enforcement: An introductory planning guide
Previous and current methods for analyzing police patrol forces are reviewed and discussed. The steps in developing an allocation analysis procedure are defined, including the prediction of the rate of calls for service, determination of the number of patrol units needed, designing sectors, and analyzing dispatch strategies. Existing computer programs used for this purpose are briefly described, and some results of their application are given.

Frequency allocations for passive use of the radio spectrum to make scientific studies
The paper examines the legal implications of frequency allocations for passive use of the radio spectrum, which refer to receive-only radio services. Such receive-only services refer to the reception of radio signals generated by nonhuman agencies as in radio astronomy or in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Juridical interpretations of the public interest and of necessity are applied to these passive services.

Effects of propagation phenomena and frequency allocation on the growth of satellite communications
The development of new allocations and new frequency and orbit sharing criteria for satellite communications below 10 GHz is discussed. These criteria are dependent on the outcome of current spectrum and orbit utilization and propagation studies addressing such problems as intersystem interference, satellite spacing, positioning, and repositioning, spillover of radio signals across geographic boundaries, and the adverse effects of propagation phenomena. These problems are discussed in relation to preparations for the 1979 General World Administrative Radio Conference.

Adaptive Allocation of Decision Making Responsibility Between Human and Computer in Multi-Task Situations
A unified formulation of computer-aided, multi-task, decision making is presented. Strategy for the allocation of decision making responsibility between human and computer is developed. The plans of a flight management systems are studied. A model based on the queueing theory was implemented.

A model for dynamic allocation of human attention among multiple tasks
The problem of multi-task attention allocation with special reference to aircraft piloting is discussed with the experimental paradigm used to characterize this situation and the experimental results obtained in the first phase of the research. A qualitative description of an approach to mathematical modeling, and some results obtained with it are also presented to indicate what aspects of the model are most promising. Two appendices are given which (1) discuss the model in relation to graph theory and optimization and (2) specify the optimization algorithm of the model.

Reliability growth/burn-in - The allocation of testing resources
A sequential component test procedure is proposed. It is assumed that there is some knowledge of the initial failure rate parameter of each component. This knowledge is modified by the results of the first one or two tests. The remaining component test time is allocated adaptively (sequentially) to the components so as to maximize the system MTBF. In other words, the components will compete among themselves for limited test resources.
