The good news is that there are ways to reduce the audit tax burden. This whitepaper outlines five methods organizations should consider to streamline their compliance efforts and thereby reduce their audit tax.

whitepaper Harnessing the Power of Location Intelligence in the Public Sector2009-08-20 Pitney Bowes
  Throughout the world, public services today are under pressure. The current economic climate, where tax receipts are naturally suppressed, provides very serious funding challenges. Moreover, in good times and bad, increasing regulation at the regional and national level is imposing additional duties and responsibilities on the public services without additional resources to carry them out. Store closures are changing the urban landscape. Demographic and/or economic change is increasing demand for health and social services. Demand for decreased crime rates is focusing minds in law enforcement. And the threat of international terrorism is forcing greater contingency duties on the emergency services. The net result is a need to do more with less—quite a challenge.

whitepaper Data Analysis and Reduction Using Stationary Solutions of the NLS Equation2009-08-12 University of Washington
  This paper demonstrates that the stationary solutions of the Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation (NLS) can be used as an orthonormal basis for the square integrable functions with periodic boundary conditions. This allows one to use these solutions in much the same way as regular Fourier modes or other basis sets. For instance, one shows the applicability of the NLS basis set for doing data analysis, and as a means for obtaining reduced models. Using a variety of examples, one shows that working with the NLS basis set is advantageous over working with the set of Fourier modes, which it contains as a special case.
