This document discusses optimal strategies for health technology assessment (HTA) and diffusion of new technologies. It outlines a framework involving four stages:
1) Assessment of new technologies through HTA to determine efficacy and effectiveness.
2) Disinvestment of technologies found to be ineffective through HTA evidence.
3) Access to promising technologies with ongoing evidence development.
4) Support for continued innovation through research funding and commercialization partnerships between government, academia and industry.
Staying Dry in Rails using code generationjeroenvandijk
Ìý
This document discusses tools and techniques for keeping Rails code "DRY" (Don't Repeat Yourself). It introduces a tool called "Instant Rails" that can generate a Rails application from a UML or YAML data model file. This allows for fast prototyping, refactoring, or applying conventions. The generator exploits information from the data model to create models, views, controllers, migrations, fixtures and more. While it currently lacks documentation and test generation, it saves time by automating basic application structure based on the provided data model and templates can be customized. More information and the ability to contribute to the project can be found on the listed GitHub pages and website.
This document summarizes a presentation on health informatics evaluation and health technology assessment. It outlines the foundations, emergent issues, opportunities for collaboration, and resources in these areas. The foundations section contrasts the focus of health technology assessment (HTA), which evaluates broad health interventions but not IT, with health informatics evaluation, which focuses on software and system factors like usability, safety, and cost-effectiveness. Emergent issues discussed include problems deploying large health IT systems and ensuring their socio-technical fit, adoption, and interoperability. The document advocates collaboration between HTA and health informatics experts to identify issues of shared interest and develop mutually beneficial methodologies.
- ISOM is a Mexican company founded in January 1987 that offers manufacturing and service operations, including electrical, mechanical, and pneumatic installations.
- Over the years, ISOM has expanded its operations to include activities like winding armatures, manufacturing furniture, assembling electromagnetic devices, and packaging various products.

This document summarizes Don Juzwishin's 2009 plenary speech at the ITCH conference about revolutionizing healthcare with health informatics. It discusses how technologies like Web 2.0, Health 2.0, and Medicine 2.0 can enable improvements by empowering patients, improving knowledge sharing between providers, and enabling healthcare reforms. The speech argues these technologies provide opportunities to improve outcomes by making high-quality evidence more accessible and encouraging collaboration, but require cultural changes for healthcare to fully benefit.
This document summarizes a presentation on using social networking applications like Web 2.0 and 3.0 to address challenges with providing universal personal health records for Canadians. The presentation identifies barriers like fragmented healthcare systems and identifies how characteristics of Web 2.0 like social networking, participation and collaboration could help remedy issues. It proposes a patient-centered healthcare system that gives citizens their personal health record and is more open, integrated and coordinated across providers. Recommendations include standardizing terminology, converging on best practices and providing citizens tools to help manage their own health.
The document discusses determining the appropriate image size by considering pixels, dots per inch (DPI), and inches. It notes that pixels define the actual image resolution, while DPI and inches affect the displayed or printed size. It also provides limitations for images on the web, such as being under 500x700 pixels or 6.94x9.72 inches at 72 DPI. Steps are outlined to prepare an image by first setting the size in inches and then compressing and saving it in a proper file format without spaces in the name.
JPG is best for photographs as it can achieve high quality with heavy compression. It should not be used for images with uniform colors and sharp edges like line art. GIF is suitable for images with fewer than 256 colors and large uniform areas, while PNG supports more colors and is lossless, making it best for exact display of photographs or images with more than 256 colors.
The document discusses determining the appropriate image size by considering pixels, dots per inch (DPI), and inches. It notes that pixels are the number of dots that make up the image file, DPI is the number of dots per inch, and inches is the actual printed or scanned size. It also provides limitations for images on the web of 500x700 pixels, 72 or 96 DPI, and maximum sizes of 6.94x9.72 inches at 72 DPI or 5.21x7.29 inches at 96 DPI. Steps are outlined to prepare an image by first determining the desired web size in inches, then saving and compressing the image file accordingly.
The document discusses key aspects of designing an effective company logo, including that the logo is the visual representation of the company and should have a simple yet bold and confident design that looks good in black and white using one or two colors in a vector graphic file, with meaning behind the concept and color choice.

Learning Objective: Develop time management skills for better organization and productivity
Students who have learned how to manage time during high school effectively are better prepared for the rigors of college study. Regardless of preparation, it takes time to adjust to college. Improve your time management skills by setting goals and staying within them. Even students who manage time well during high school often struggle when they begin college. Students are overwhelmed with large course loads, extracurricular activities, and other social activities. Although being in college can be overwhelming, completing everything that must be done in a timely and efficient manner is possible. Developing time management and organizational skills is the key to working efficiently. The best way to better manage time is to create daily schedules. Most organized people plan daily, weekly, and monthly tasks. This seminar will show you how to be self-motivated, leading to better organizational skills, productivity, and efficiency.
