Centralised database
-
-
Uses: enables your business to make use of things like business process automation and connected teams.
-
Disadvantages
it takes more time to search and access it. If the network is slow, this process takes even more time.
-
if multiple users try to access it simultaneously it creates a problem. This may reduce the efficiency of the system.
If there are no database recovery measures in place and a system failure occurs, then all the data in the database will be destroyed.
-
Human Genome Project
-
The project was a voyage of biological discovery led by an international group of researchers looking to comprehensively study all of the DNA (known as a genome) of a select set of organisms.
Goals
Optimization of the data analysis. Sequencing the entire genome. Identification of the complete human genome.
-
Cons
-
Geneism: People with genetic problems could be under pressure not to have children as a threat of passing on their faulty genes onto the next generation.
-
VPN
Allows a secure private connection over a public network, using an encrypted 'tunnel'.
eg: a remote computer can securely connected to a LAN, as though it were physically connected
Issue: VPN is Not Secure
expose entire networks to threats like malware, DDoS attacks, and spoofing attacks. Once an attacker has breached the network through a compromised device, the entire network can be brought down.
-
Cybernetics
-
It investigates intercausal networks in human biology, medical decision making and information processing structures in the living organism.
Pros
- Improving the call center
- Centralizing and creating access to knowledge
- Increasing employee satisfaction
- Providing recommendations
-
e-Prescreptions
-
EPS allows prescribers to send prescriptions electronically to a dispenser (such as a pharmacy) of the patient's choice.
This makes the prescribing and dispensing process more efficient and convenient for patients and staff.
Pros
- Instant Allergy and Drug Interaction Notification
- Prevents Prescription Drug Errors
-
Ergonomics
-
The goal of ergonomics is to prevent soft tissue injuries and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) caused by sudden or sustained exposure to force, vibration, repetitive motion, and awkward posture.
Type of ergonomics
physical, cognitive, and organizational.
Each of these differently affects how people interact with their environment, contributing to how effective they are in their work.
-
Medical Expert System
-
A computer program that, when well-crafted, gives decision support in the form of accurate diagnostic information or, less commonly, suggests treatment or prognosis.
Mycin for infectious diseases, and Internist-1, QMR and DXplain for general internal medicine
How it works
use machine learning and artificial intelligence to simulate the behavior or judgment of domain experts.
accumulate experience and facts in a knowledge base and integrate them with an inference or rules engine -- a set of rules for applying the knowledge base to situations provided to the program.
Forward chaining reads and processes a set of facts to make a logical prediction about what will happen next.
Backward chaining reads and processes a set of facts to reach a logical conclusion about why something happened.

Computer Model
-
E.g : weather forecasting models, earth simulator models, flight simulator models, molecular protein folding models, and neural network models.
A program that runs on a computer that creates a model, or simulation, of a real-world feature, phenomenon or event.
Prosthetics
Devices used to replace a user's arms or legs if they have been amputated. Increasing becoming computerised.
-
-
Telemedicine/Telehealth
Using IT to perform medical consultations when the doctor and patient are in geographically separate locations
-
-
Telesurgery
-
Issue: the operator does not directly view the surgical field, operating through a screen interface.
-
-
-
-
Virtual Reality
A virtual world which the user views using a special headset, and may participate in using specialist, input devices.
Issue
-
-
-
-
uses
used in industries, medical, security, military, Anti-terrorism, Traffic accidents awareness, Weather forecasting
Addiction
Compulsive use of computer system that can lead to negative effects, such a health problems and growing problem
Negative effects
-
Health
Body aches,CTS, Insomnia, Vision problems, Weight gain or loss
-
Opt-in
-
Pros: more likely learn about the benefits of sharing their health data, and the potential security risks involved
Opt-out
-
Pros: reduce benefit costs by paying less for the incentive than they would for their share of the benefit premium
