Managing access block

Managing access block.

There is pessimism regarding the ability of the Acute Health Sector to manage access block for emergency and elective patients. Melbourne Health suffered an acute bed crisis in 2001 resulting in record ambulance diversions and emergency department (ED) delays. We conducted an observational study to reduce access block for emergency patients whilst maintaining elective throughput at Melbourne He...

Managing Buffer Cache by Block Access Pattern

As buffer cache is used to overcome the speed gap between processor and storage devices, performance of buffer cache is a deciding factor in verifying the system performance. Need of improved buffer cache hit ratio and inabilities of the Least Recent Used replacement algorithm inspire the development of the proposed algorithm. Data reuse and program locality are the basis for determining the ca...

Managing Radial Access Vascular Complications

A mong patients undergoing diagnostic cardiac catheterization, transradial access leads to improved quality of life after the procedure, is strongly preferred by patients, and reduces hospital costs.1 Transradial coronary angiography and angioplasty is safe, feasible, and effective, with results similar to those of the transfemoral approach.2 Although complications are infrequent, they do occur...

Block-oriented random access MNOS

MXOS storage elements have been used to realize a blockoriented all electronic secondary memory module. This nonvolatile storage unit offers lO-microsecond data access and reliable error free operation. BORAM modules provide an immediately available cost effective alternative to electromechanical storage in severe environment applications. The text below describes an 18-million-bit advanced dev...
