Is there a need for a formulary of clinically interchangeable medicines to guide generic substitution in Saudi Arabia?
(2013 , Article)
The escalating healthcare expenditure is a major challenge to sustainability of the healthcare systems. To confront the escalating health expenditure in general and medicines expenditure in particular, many countries ...
Do community pharmacists in Nepal have a role in adverse drug reaction reporting systems?
(2013 , Article)
Community pharmacies in Nepal serve both rural and urban populations and are an integral part of the Nepalese healthcare system. These community pharmacies are run by non-pharmacist professionals with orientation training ...
Do health professionals have positive perception towards consumer reporting of adverse drug reactions?
(2013 , Article)
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the perceptions of general practitioners (GPs) and community pharmacists (CPs) in Penang, Malaysia, towards consumer reporting of Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs). Methodology: A ...
Optimal control of midazolam infusion for post operative patients in intensive care units
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)

Particle filtering for state and parameter estimation in gas turbine engine fault diagnostics
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a novel method for a time-varying parameter estimation technique using particle filters is proposed based on the concept of Recursive Prediction Error (RPE). According to the proposed method, a parallel ...
Multiple-model based sensor fault diagnosis using hybrid kalman filter approach for nonlinear gas turbine engines
(
2013 1st American Control Conference, ACC 2013
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, an efficient sensor fault detection and isolation (FDI) strategy is proposed based on multiple-model (MM) approach. The scheme is composed of hybrid kalman filters (HKF) by integrating a nonlinear gas turbine ...
