Using Technology as an Enabler of Healthcare Facilities []


Currently, pharmacy management systems are focused mainly on receiving electronic prescriptions, documenting prescription dispensing functions, and exchanging claims-based information. As pharmacists provide more clinically based services, pharmacy management systems need to adopt functionality to collect, document, and exchange clinical information. Increasing access to new health technologies leverages the power of mobile communications both in emerging and developed countries, and promises to deliver better health solutions around the globe. This study examines how mobile solutions can help address drugs accessibility challenges so that patients can access drugs without travelling long distances. The World Health Organization’s (WHO) defines health as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity” and it should inform approaches to healthcare as good health largely impacts individuals and the society. For individuals, good health leads to a better quality of life and education, enhancing their ability to find a job and to secure a higher lifetime income. In addition, healthier workers are less frequently absent from the workplace, and lower levels of absenteeism lead to cost savings for companies. For the society as a whole, a healthier citizen reduces pressure on overburdened hospitals, clinics, and medical professionals. By introducing technologies such as mobile health to improve the pharmacy process, the drug accessibility challenges are greatly reduced. A patient will be able to collect their medication without the stress of long distance drives or taking days off from work. An effective, accessible healthcare system is a prerequisite for economic growth and has clear benefits across society. Technology is an increasingly important element in operations management. It may be defined as “anything that replaces routine or repetitive tasks that were previously per-formed by people or which extends (or enhances) the capability of people to do their work”. Merriam-Webster (2016) defines technology as “the practical application of knowledge especially in a particular area” and “a capability given by the practical application of knowledge”.

An integrated MCDM approach for drought vulnerability Assessment in semi-Arid region- Ranipet, Tamil Nadu, India []


Major part of the city of ranipet is used for agricultural purposed and drought can adversely affect it and hence Drought vulnerability assessment is very important for the area. For this past 35 years of rainfall data is used for six stations found for the study area using theissen polygon method. Then three drought index that is SPI (standard precipitation index), RAI (Rainfall anomaly index) and PNPI (percent normal precipitation index) is calculated. Spatial variation maps of the index is prepared in ArcGIS. The next set of data is downloaded from CRU (climatic research unit) website. Potential evapotranspiration, precipitation, wet days and temperature of past 10 years is downloaded and is extracted for our study area in ArcGIS. Now the data calculated is extracted for MCDA ( multi criteria decision analysis) decision matrix for this RAI, PNPI and CRU data maps is placed in a single layer of ArcGIS and with spreading random points the data is extracted in the form of attribute table .In the decision matrix nine parameters are present and for MCDA we have to assign weight to each category this is done with entropy weight now, In MCDM two models is used WPM (weighted product method) WSM (weighted sum method).spatial variation map is prepared from both the models and then with goodness-of-fit statistics the models are validated. The results shows WSM has less percentage error and shows the final drought vulnerability map of the study area.

Wall Street – A Gambler’s Paradise; Can Application of Analytical Principles of ‘Turbulence’ Completely Disrupt Wall-Street Trading? []


‘Turbulence’ is a commonly used and easily understood English word. It has universal application in all branches of science and engineering and usage in societal dynamics for its advancement. However, its simplicity vanishes when used in Fluid Science and applied particularly to Aerospace Technology (Ref: Shiva Prasad, B. G., 2012). One could broadly define ‘turbulence’ as fluctuation/s of any dependent parameter/s or variable/s in any system irrespective of its scale (subatomic to cosmic) with respect to its relevant independent variables like space/time. Share price fluctuations seen every day in Wall-Street is a good example of Turbulence (phenomena) signal vary-ing with time. This paper is meant to demonstrate how the physics of fluid turbulence employing signal processing and statistical analysis could be transplanted to other areas like “Wall-Street” Stock Trading for disrupting High Frequency, Programmed and/or Internet Trading.

Shortest Path Planning for Wheeled Mobile Robot using Dummy Targets and MATLAB simulations []


In robot navigation, obstacle avoidance is major issue of consideration and if not handled properly can result in enormous losses and permanent damages. This paper presents simple algorithm, with a different technique in obstacle avoidance, for devising the shortest path for the robot navigation, while ensuring utmost safety and task competency in reaching the target. The proposed algorithm assumes the obstacles are 2D, stationary and of different shapes and sizes, embedded by virtual, secure elliptical surrounding. This approach combined with the conventional methodology of employing tangential approach in clockwise/counter clock wise directions and Virtual Force Field (VFF), projects it as hybrid model. The novelty of this method is the introduction of intermittent dummy targets to determine the straight-line segments of the shortest path to the goal.

EXERGY ANALYSIS AND EXERGETIC SUSTAINABILITY INDEX OF PACKAGE BOILER []


in a country which continues to increase is directly proportional to the growth in energy needs required by society. Indonesia is the largest energy user in Southeast Asia, namely more than 36% of Southeast Asia's primary energy use. Utilization of the energy used will reduce the increase in production costs for an industry. The use of energy is better known as energy conservation. Energy and exergy analysis based on the first and second laws of thermodynamics is used to analyze the thermal system of industrial units. This can be applied to equipment units in the fertilizer industry to identify sources of inefficiency, determine their location and the amount of exergy destruction that occur. To reduce exergy destruction, this can be done by modifying the operating conditions of the package boiler. The results show that 94.3% of the total exergy destruction from the boiler package is obtained from the evaporator component with a value of 2.7 x 108 kJ/hr Modification of the operating conditions of the evaporator is carried out by reducing Boiler Feed Water (BFW) inlet temperature with ΔT 100C (196 – 116oC). The decrease BFW temperature will increase the amount of required latent heat and reduce the convection heat that will be carried by the flue gas to generate superheated steam. Optimization of the BFW temperature is performed be calculating the flue gas temperature and exergoeconomic analysis. Exergoeconomic analysis is performed by calculating the cost rate of exergy destruction (ĊD,k) and exergoeconomic factor (fk). The results obtained were that the temperature was optimum of BFW is at 161°C which resulted the reduction of exergy destruction of 6,2x106 kJ/hr and resulting difference cost losses based on actual data (196°C) of Rp 1,370,354,743/hr. Exergetic Sustainability Index (ESI) used to demonstrate how reducing a system's environmental impact can be achieved by reducing its exergy consumption (destruction and losses) or increasing its exergetic efficiency. In this research, ESI Value was achieved at 0,918
