Unreferenced date July 2008 In mathematics , the term localanalysis has at least two meanings both derived from the idea of looking at a problem relative to each prime number p first, and then later trying to integrate the information gained at each prime into a global picture. These are forms of the Category Localization mathematics localization approach. Group theory In group theory , localanalysis was started by the Sylow theorems , which contain significant information about the structure of a finite group G for each prime number p dividing the order of G . This area of study was enormously developed in the quest for the classification of finite simple groups , starting with the Feit Thompson theorem that groups of odd order are solvable group solvable . Number theory main Localization of a ring In number theory one may study a Diophantine equation , for example, modulo p for all primes p , looking for constraints on solutions. The next step is to look modulo prime powers, and then for solutions in the p adic number p adic field . This kind of localanalysis provides conditions for solution that are necessary . In cases where localanalysis plus the condition that there are real solutions provides also sufficient conditions, one says that the Hasse principle holds this is the best possible situation. It does for quadratic form s, but certainly not in general for example for elliptic curve s . The point of view that one would like to understand what extra conditions are needed has been very influential, for example for cubic forms. Some form of localanalysis underlies both the standard applications of the Hardy Littlewood circle method in analytic number theory , and the use of adele ring s, making this one of the unifying principles across number theory.

Orphan date October 2010 Response Analysis refers to the analysis of mitigation plans for emergency or disaster situations. These emergencies or disasters may be naturally occurring e.g. hurricane s, earthquake s, disease outbreaks, etc. or man made e.g. terrorism , bio terrorism, industrial accidents, chemical spills, etc. . Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the following Anthrax bio terror attacks, and the disasters precipitated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, emphasis has been put on the development of mitigation plans to prepare for such situations. The field of response analysis is the effort to analyze, validate, and optimize these mitigation plans using quantitative data and computational tools. Biological Emergencies The Cities Readiness Initiative established a mandate for local governments to develop mitigation plans in advance of biological emergencies and implement such plans during these emergencies. The Strategic National Stockpile was established to support local governments by providing large quantities of needed medications or vaccination s rapidly. Development of computational tools to analyze and optimize biological emergencies are currently under development at the http cecera.unt.edu University of North Texas Center for Computational Epidemiology and Response Analysis .

Nutrition analysis refers to the process of determining the nutrition al content of food s and food products. The process can be performed through a variety of certified methods. Methods Laboratory analysis Traditionally, food companies would send food samples to laboratories for chemical testing. Chemical testing involves the incineration of the foods to test the ash for exact nutritional content. Software Software is available as an alternative to laboratory nutrition analysis. This software typically utilizes a database of ingredients that have previously been laboratory tested. The user can input ingredient data by matching their ingredients to ingredients found in the database the analysis can then be calculated. Online Nutrition Analysis In recent years, web based nutrition analysis software services have become more popular. Online nutrition analysis allows users to access online databases and draw from certified ingredients to produce instant nutrition information. Turn Key Nutrition Analysis Services Another emerging trend is the use of nutrtional analysis services that do a complete analysis of any recipe by using their proprietary database. Users provide recipes, cooking methods and serving sizes. In turn, the service provides a complete nutrional analysis. Applications In the United States, nutrition information is required on packaged retail foods in the form of nutrition facts panels as a result of food labeling regulations . ref http www.fda.gov Food LabelingNutrition default.htm Food Labeling and Nutrition Overview ref In recent years, many restaurants have begun posting nutrition information as a result of both customer demand and menu labeling laws. ref http www.menucalc.com menulabeling.aspx MenuCalc Info Center ref Nutrition facts label main Nutrition ...
