Biomedical and social science researchers who want to analyze survival data with SAS will find just what they need with this easy-to-read and comprehensive guide. Written for the reader with a modest statistical background and minimal knowledge of SAS software, this book teaches many aspects of data input and manipulation. Numerous examples of SAS code and output make this an eminently practical resource, ensuring that even the uninitiated becomes a sophisticated user of survival analysis. The main topics presented include censoring, survival curves, Kaplan-Meier estimation, accelerated failure time models, Cox regression models, and discrete-time analysis. Also included are topics not usually covered, such as time-dependent covariates, competing risks, and repeated events.

This document is unique in its detailed coverage of the new RPG IV language and aspects of the Integrated Language Environment. The purpose of this document is to provide an introduction to the RPG IV language and guidelines for implementing applications using the Integrated Language Environment. The publication SC41-3606, should be considered a prerequisite to this publication. This document is intended for experienced programmers, analysts, and implementers who are responsible for the creation and maintenance of application programs on the AS/400. It assumes the reader has a fairly good background in the AS/400 programming environment.

Water Management Models: A Guide to Software is designed to make the inventory of modeling tools more accessible to water management professionals. The purpose of the book is to assist water managers, planners, engineers, and scientists in sorting through the maze of models to understand which ones might be most useful for their particular modeling needs. Information is provided to facilitate identification, selection, and acquisition of software packages for a broad spectrum of water resources planning and management applications.

This document provides a general introduction to storage management using AIX on the RS/6000. Concepts and terminology are covered before describing in more detail the operating system components: the Logical Volume Manager, and file systems. Using this foundation, it then describes the additional features and functions provided with AIX Version 4; useful commands are also detailed, as well as a guide to organizing storage. In order to illustrate the topics covered, and provide examples of common practical application, a section containing detailed step by step information on a variety of storage management tasks is included. This document is intended for customers and systems engineers who require a more detailed understanding of storage management with AIX on the RS/6000, particularly the additional features provided with AIX Version 4, and who wish to have access to practical examples. Some knowledge of AIX Version 3 is assumed.
