objective: this study proposed a model for provision of an effective universal coverage for mental health services based on global and national experiences, available resources and the nature of primary health care system of iran to reduce the burden of mental health conditions. method: a framework with prioritized mental and social health services was devised through a review of literature and...

Background To improve the performance of the healthcare system, Mali’s government implemented a pilot project of performance-based financing (PBF) in the field of reproductive health. It was established in the Koulikoro region. This research analyses the process of implementing PBF at district hospital (DH) level, something which has rarely been done in Africa.   Methods...

This paper describes another option for the evaluation and analysis of data measured on flight simulator using alternative human behavior models – human as a pilot while flying an aircraft. Paper also describes the original method of mathematical human behavior model sensitivity analysis, or more precisely, pilot's response to a sudden change of flight altitude. The model is in the form of a ra...

To ensure the operation safety of landing signal officer (LSO) to pilot during carrierbased aircraft landing, the paper proposed a “LSO-pilot-aircraft” instruction associated with operation system. LSO guide mission, and design instruction associated with operation element is been analysed. The relationship and matching of “LSO-pilotaircraft” system are exhibited by instruction associated with ...

The PILOT project comprised partners from nine European countries. The national research teams have conducted a series of case studies on non-researchintensive, so called low-tech companies in eleven countries, investigating their value chains and regional networks, and the policies that impact on these firms and on low-tech and medium-low-tech (LMT) sectors in general. A second thread of work ...

A recurrent problem in information-systems development (ISD) is that many design shortcomings are not detected during development, but first after the system has been delivered and implemented in its intended environment. Pilot implementations appear to promise a way to extend prototyping from the laboratory to the field, thereby allowing users to experience a system design under realistic cond...

STUDY OBJECTIVE To describe the outcomes of switching housestaff from a traditional model of "long-call" every 4 days to a 14-h work-shift model in a medical ICU (MICU) over a 5-week pilot period. DESIGN Retrospective comparison of a 5-week pilot period for a 14-h work-shift model vs a 4-month period for the traditional model. SETTING The MICU of a tertiary medical center. PARTICIPANTS A ...

The proposed transition to single-pilot operations (SPO) in commercial and military aircraft has motivated the development of advanced autonomy systems. However, a detailed analysis of the impact of advanced autonomy on pilot workload through various phases of flight and contingency scenarios has not been conducted. To this end, this paper presents the development of the Pilot-Autonomy Workload...
