SLA adaptation for service overlay networks
Virtual Network Operators lease bandwidth from different data carriers to offer well managed Virtual Private Networks. By using proprietary algorithms and leased resource diversity they can offer Quality of Service, at competitive prices, which is difficult to attain from traditional data network operators. Since maximizing the profit is a key objective for virtual network operators, in this paper we describe a novel resource management approach, based on an economic model that allows continuous optimizing of the network profit, while keeping network blocking constraints. The approach integrates leased link capacity adaptations with connection admission control and routing policies by using concepts derived from Markov Decision Process theory. Our numerical analysis validates the approach and shows that the profit can be maximized under varying network conditions

Collaborative Home/School Interventions: Evidence-Based Solutions for Emotional, Behavioral, and Academic Problems
Parents can be invaluable partners in identifying students’ behavioral and learning needs and developing effective solutions. This book provides practical tools for collaborating with families to achieve the best outcomes for K–12 students. In a large-size format with lay-flat binding for easy reference and photocopying, the book includes more than 40 ready-to-use reproducibles. The volume is useful for school-based mental health professionals, who will learn how to build positive home/school relationships, actively involve parents in assessment and intervention, and overcome barriers to collaboration. This is the latest research on what works in treating internalizing, externalizing, and academic difficulties is translated into clear-cut recommendations for practice.https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/usufaculty_monographs/1005/thumbnail.jp
