Download or read book Access Delayed Access Denied written by and published by The Fraser Institute. This book was released on 2008 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PR: the date at which the first public reimbursement of the new drug is recorded in the formularies of each federal, provincial, and territorial drug program. [...] For the purposes of this report, the global development time for new medicines is assumed to be a function of factors outside of Canada's control; therefore, the time associated with this segment is presented for completeness but is not the focus of the main policy discussion in this paper, nor is it part of the overall wait time for access to new medicines measured here. [...] In Canada, the time patients spend waiting for government approval of a new drug is measured from the date the drug manufacturer's application for approval is recorded or filed in the Central Registry (CR) of Health Canada's Therapeutic Products Director- ate (TPD) or Biologics and Genetics Therapies Directorate (BGTD) following the comple- tion of clinical testing. [...] Since 2004, the equivalent authority to approve pharmaceutical and biological medicines in the United States has fallen under the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), with the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), a part of the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA). [...] The delay in this segment is measured from the date at which Health Canada issues a NOC for a new drug to the date at which the first public reimbursement (PR) of the same drug is recorded in the formularies of each federal, provincial, and territorial drug program.

Download or read book Multimedia Modeling Towards Information Superhighway written by Tat Seng Chua and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1995-11-10 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The process of integrating multiple senses and media into computer systems accelerated recently. This has broaden the applications of multimedia from the traditional areas of information organization, presentation and learning, to the new fields of simulation and virtual reality. Applications that have benefited from the introduction of multimedia include: training, demonstration of products for sales or inventory, education, computer-aided design and engineering, medicine, weather, and entertainment.This volume is devoted to the discussion of effective modeling of multimedia information and systems for a wide range of applications. It is perhaps the only book that devotes entirely to this important but much neglected topic.

Download or read book Modeling and Optimization in Software Defined Networks written by Konstantinos Poularakis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a quick reference and insights into modeling and optimization of software-defined networks (SDNs). It covers various algorithms and approaches that have been developed for optimizations related to the control plane, the considerable research related to data plane optimization, and topics that have significant potential for research and advances to the state-of-the-art in SDN. Over the past ten years, network programmability has transitioned from research concepts to more mainstream technology through the advent of technologies amenable to programmability such as service chaining, virtual network functions, and programmability of the data plane. However, the rapid development in SDN technologies has been the key driver behind its evolution. The logically centralized abstraction of network states enabled by SDN facilitates programmability and use of sophisticated optimization and control algorithms for enhancing network performance, policy management, and security.Furthermore, the centralized aggregation of network telemetry facilitates use of data-driven machine learning-based methods. To fully unleash the power of this new SDN paradigm, though, various architectural design, deployment, and operations questions need to be addressed. Associated with these are various modeling, resource allocation, and optimization opportunities.The book covers these opportunities and associated challenges, which represent a ``call to arms'' for the SDN community to develop new modeling and optimization methods that will complement or improve on the current norms.
