 Develop an algorithm to construct Sudoku puzzles of varying difficulty. Develop metrics to define a difficulty level. The algorithm and metrics should be extensible to a varying number of difficulty levels. You should illustrate the algorithm with at least 4 difficulty levels. Your algorithm should guarantee a unique solution. Analyze the complexity of your algorithm. Your objective should be to minimize the complexity of the algorithm and meet the above requirements. Develop an algorithm to construct Sudoku puzzles of varying difficulty.

 The World Health Organization (WHO), an agency of the United Nations, is a source of data on health factors. The annual World Health Report (http://www.who.int/whr/en/index.html) assesses global health factors and World Health Statistics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Health_Organisation) provides health statistics for the countries in the UN.  The production and dissemination of health statistics is a major function of WHO. To many people, these data and the associated analyses are considered unbiased and very valuable to the world community. There are many other sources of reliable health data available.  The World Health Organization (WHO), an agency of the United Nations, is a source of data on health factors.

 **Part I**:  Describe several different outcomes (metrics) that could be used to evaluate the effectiveness of a country’s health care system, such as average life expectancy of its residents. What metric would you use to make comparisons between existing and potential systems? Can you combine your metrics to make them even more useful in measuring quality?  **Part I**:  Describe several different outcomes (metrics) that could be used to evaluate the effectiveness of a country’s health care system, such as average life expectancy of its residents.

 **Part II**:  Identify current sources of data that provide the raw data needed to compute the metrics you have identified above. You may need to modify your list of metrics based on the availability of data. Explain why you have selected those data and demonstrate how they can be used to assess and compare the relative effectiveness of health care systems as they exist in different countries.    **Part II**:  Identify current sources of data that provide the raw data needed to compute the metrics you have identified above.

 **Part VI**:   Pick a country’s (US or other) health care system and restructure it to improve the system based on your metrics.  Build predictive models to test various changes to determine if the changes will improve the overall quality of the system.  Suggest major change(s) that can improve the system.    **Part VI**:   Pick a country’s (US or other) health care system and restructure it to improve the system based on your metrics.  Build predictive models to test various changes to determine if the changes will improve the overall quality of the system.  Suggest major change(s) that can improve the system.
