but if you can afford to defer only one benefit it should be the CPP due to the higher increase in benefits and the survivorship rules discussed below. How much
When individuals reach retirement age, their benefits are determined based on the number of years they contributed to the required minimum amounts. To qualify for the maximum benefit, they must not only have contributed to CPP for 40 years but also have contributed a sufficient amount in each o...
As we can see on the plot, the larger is the graph, the higher is the benefit of using contraction hierarchies. For OSM Europe, query time can be faster by a factor of 5000 compared to bidirectional Dijkstra and 2500 to NBA. Distance matrix Here are the measurements of query time (in ...
By CPP Investments on Nov 2, 2022 Companies need to not only identify their capacity to economically abate emissions but also put it near the top of their most urgent priorities. Last year we proposed an Abatement Capacity Assessment Framework; a standardized template for assessing a company's...

The loading methods as per the present invention may in certain instances advantageously be combined with an electroporation step, in order to increase the quantity of drug loaded into the EVs. In another aspect, the present invention pertains to EVs comprising at least one pharmacological agent con...
The benefit of this approach is that “fractional” frames can essentially be averaged. By setting alpha=1, there will be zero filtering, but reducing alpha to near 0, will increase averaging and smoothly. So it is not a simple discrete “average 2 or 3 or 4 frames”, but allows for ...
