Forecasting and Risk Analysis in Supply Chain Management
(MIT Engineering Systems Division, 2008-10)Forecasting is an underestimated field of research in supply chain management. Recently advanced methods are coming into use. Initial results are encouraging, but often require changes in policies for collaboration and ... -
Forecasting and Risk Simulation: Proposed Analytical Tool
(2008-08-01)Advances in econometrics and financial mathematics are still confined to use within the domains of stocks, bonds, shares, currency exchanges and derivatives markets. Extracting the principles (see paper by Datta & Granger) ... -
Future Healthcare
(CRC Press, 2010-12-15)Patients want answers, not numbers. Evidence-based medicine must have numbers to generate answers. Therefore, analysis of numbers to provide answers is the Holy Grail of healthcare professionals and its future systems. ... -
Future of Healthcare?
(2010-05-18)Catalyzing the paradigm shift from healthcare to health may help reduce cost of services. Remote monitoring coupled with intelligent analytics based on sensor data may provide partial solutions. -

HAPHAZARD REALITY
(2021-03-20)HAPHAZARD REALITY is a borrowed title from the autobiography of Hendrik Brugt Gerhard Casimir. Ideas discussed in this collection of amorphous thoughts were once paradoxes which may become paradigms (borrowed phrase from ... -
Healthcare and Medical IoT
(2017-04-06)Detection of analytes in the context of nano-diagnostics for preventive medicine and global public health may be within our grasp. But, it appears to be far removed from the reality of the world where 80% of the people ... -
How to Improve Pavement Life Cycle Cost Analysis: A Case Study of Minnesota
(2017-06-26)Life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) frameworks are used by some transportation agencies for economic assessment, but there have been challenges implementing the approach, particularly in the characterization of initial and ... -
