background in supporting a therapeutic approach and medication therapy management, pharmacy information system acts as one of the central pillars of information system. this ensures that medication therapy is being supported and evaluated with an optimal level of safety and quality similar to other treatments and services. objectives this research aims to evaluate the performance of pharmacy in...

 In this paper by use of mathematical modeling of an observer [14,15] the notion of relative information functional for relative dynamical systemson compact metric spaces is presented. We extract the information function ofan ergodic dynamical system (X,T) from the relative information of T fromthe view point of observer χX, where X denotes the base space of the system.We also generalize the in...

Telemedicine is the new way of delivering health services to patients and can be defined as the provision of medical services by using information technology and communication systems. Moreover, it emphasizes the interaction and collaboration with the increase of sharing information and knowledge between healthcare provider and patient. Healthcare information systems contain large volumes of in...

Quick and qualitative services are not new issues anymore in Logistics but those are still important problems along with cost-cutting. Related to the issues, though advanced information technologies are introduced unceasingly from laboratories, yet there is long way to go for smooth and seamless information flows on physical distribution processes in the industrial field. For the reason, the st...

International migration of health professionals has been increasing in our globalized world, compounding a pressing need to improve information systems that confirm their qualifications and track health workforce volume. This paper reports on research to help address this need by introducing a framework for defining health professionals as agents. A case study and a categorical analysis of 11 m...

Clinical trials encompass a vast array of studies in treatment, prevention or diagnosis of medical conditions. There is an enormous requirement for knowledge and information management at all stages of the trials – planning, specification, implementation, and analysis. We are building Epoch, a knowledgebased system to manage clinical trials in the Immune Tolerance Network (ITN) in developing ne...
