✦ Synopsis

Thi8 paper show8 that w&&nizi?zg a quadratic cost function is not ~artricularly useful for selecting a small number of controlkr gains in Behi& headway co&ml. For cases in which a large number of controEkr gai,m are to be selected, the quadratic cost fultctio?z may be useful* but the ~~ght~~g parameter sa:alu.es cawwt boy be chosen zs priori if ~ra~~~n~ performance measures are of pa&x&z-interest. Examples illustrate how oalues of weights in a simplified cost fu.nction can be selected to y$eld acceptable transient performance. This perform G cowpure& with that for a ~~stena ~~~~~~g OF@ a few g~~?~e and o~t~~~~ without reoourse to a cost functhti.

Some problems in optimal control, for a class of linear distributed parameter systems, are posed. By using a theorem of approximation theory, a maximum principle, which is applicable to these optimal control problems, is given. It is shown, that for the problems posed in this paper, this maximum pri

## Abstract __Objective__: Expose the weak loops in the Chinese medical insurance coverage and uncover hospitals' role of over‐pricing hospitalized insured patients compared with those non‐insured. __Methods__: A multi‐linear regression method was used to analyze hospitalization expense for insure
