Health surveillance: an operational imperative?
Many recent operations have highlighted the problem of hazard exposure in troops. This is a difficult area since it depends upon both post-deployment and possibly mid-deployment health surveillance and crosses the traditional limits of occupation and public health medicine. Health surveillance is itself a term which straddles occupational and public health medicine. For the military population ...
متن کاملRule-Based Operational Semantics for an Imperative Language
Operational semantics for programming languages usually come in two flavours: big-step and small-step. Both are defined using deduction rules with a congruence rule allowing reduction in certain contexts. For a description based on rewrite rules, known approaches consist in deriving an abstract machine, which is very close to implementation. In this paper, we describe the operational semantics ...
متن کاملOperational Semantics of an Imperative Language in Definite Clauses
We present the “big-step” operational semantics of a small programming language NIL (Natural Imperative Language) in definite clauses, thus building on the fixpoint semantics of logic programs. NIL operates on a state which is just a sequence of counters. As basic statements NIL has incrementation, decrementation and test for null. NIL allows for sequential composition and non-deterministic cho...
متن کاملPersonalising your health: an EU imperative
In the fast-moving world of personalised medicine there are many issues and barriers-not least when it comes to getting novel drugs and treatments swiftly to where they are really needed. Slow bench-to-bedside rates do not help the 500 million potential patients across the EU's current 28 Member States, and the timings are affected by several elements during the development and licensing phases...
متن کاملSleep: a health imperative.
Chronic sleep deficiency, defined as a state of inadequate or mistimed sleep, is a growing and underappreciated determinant of health status. Sleep deprivation contributes to a number of molecular, immune, and neural changes that play a role in disease development, independent of primary sleep disorders. These changes in biological processes in response to chronic sleep deficiency may serve as ...
