A critical challenge facing clinicians managing chronic disease interventions is sustaining long-run patient health given limited information and resources. Digital therapeutics (DTs) provide a cost-effective way to manage interventions at…
Automated material handling systems are used in healthcare facilities to optimize material flow, minimize workforce requirements, reduce the risk of contamination, and reduce injuries. This study proposes a framework that integrates data…
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, its application in the optimization of complex computer systems is becoming more and more extensive. Edge computing is an efficient distributed computing architecture, and…
Making decisions about what clinical tasks to prepare for is multi-factored, and especially challenging in intensive care environments where resources must be balanced with patient needs. Electronic health records (EHRs) are a rich data…
With tremendous growing interests in Big Data systems, analyzing and facilitating their performance improvement become increasingly important. Although there have much research efforts for improving Big Data systems performance, efficiently…
We deal with the problem of energy management in buildings subject to uncertain occupancy. To this end, we formulate this as a finite horizon optimization program and optimize with respect to the windows' blinds position, radiator and…
Clinical decision support systems are software tools that help clinicians to make medical decisions. However, their acceptance by clinicians is usually rather low. A known problem is that they often require clinicians to manually enter lots…
In pediatrics, patients, caregivers, and clinicians share responsibility for health decisions, but limited collaboration can undermine outcomes. We conducted a qualitative study examining decision-makers perceptions toward collaborative…
When managing an organization, planners often encounter numerous challenging scenarios. In such instances, relying solely on intuition or managerial experience may not suffice, necessitating a quantitative approach. This demand is further…
The rise of advanced data technologies in electric power distribution systems enables operators to optimize operations but raises concerns about data security and consumer privacy. Resulting data protection mechanisms that alter or…
Modern cloud databases present scaling as a binary decision: scale-out by adding nodes or scale-up by increasing per-node resources. This one-dimensional view is limiting because database performance, cost, and coordination overhead emerge…
This article reports from an ongoing 'evaluation for improvement' action research and participatory design project in Rwanda, where the aim is to improve data use practices and the capabilities of the District Health Information Software 2…
While the ICD code assignment problem has been widely studied, most works have focused on post-discharge document classification. Models for early forecasting of this information could be used for identifying health risks, suggesting…
As declarative query processing techniques expand in scope --- to the Web, data streams, network routers, and cloud platforms --- there is an increasing need for adaptive query processing techniques that can re-plan in the presence of…
Problem definition: Emergency department (ED) boarding refers to the practice of holding patients in the ED after they have been admitted to hospital wards, usually resulting from insufficient inpatient resources. Boarded patients may…
Decision support tools enable improved decision-making for challenging decision problems by empowering stakeholders to process, analyze, visualize, and otherwise make sense of a variety of key factors. Their intentional design is a critical…
Blood transfusion is one of the most crucial and commonly administered therapeutics worldwide. The need for more accurate and efficient ways to manage blood demand and supply is an increasing concern. Building a technology-based, robust…
We contribute a deep-learning-based method that assists in designing analytical dashboards for analyzing a data table. Given a data table, data workers usually need to experience a tedious and time-consuming process to select meaningful…
Modern intelligent urban mobility applications are underpinned by large-scale, multivariate, spatiotemporal data streams. Working with this data presents unique challenges of data management, processing and presentation that is often…
Using personal generated health data (PGHD) during medical consultations can be beneficial for both patients and clinicians. However, multiple acceptance barriers such as lack of PGHD reliability prevents a routine usage of this data. A…
