This paper presents an investigation into the use of process modeling to decibels complex processes in the healthcare sector, with reference to the process of Surgery and Registration in China. We argue that process models are generally useful as a means for understanding, analyzing and improving complex health processes. Also, we show that using these models it is possible to discover process bottlenecks...
High quality information has a significant impact on improving operation performance and patient satisfaction, as well as resolving patient disputes. Based on the analysis of the perioperative process, information quality is considered as an important contributory factor in improving patient throughput. In this paper, we propose a conceptual framework to use computer simulations in modeling information...
The paper seeks to investigate, how system dynamics modeling can be supportive for green IT management. The behavior of the green IT management under study is analyzed through a simulation model based on the principles of the system dynamics methodology. The simulation model can be helpful as an experimental tool, which can be used to evaluate Green IT strategies ("what-if" analysis) using...
This paper describes the simulation modeling for planning for the efficient transportation of patients following an earthquake disaster. Research was performed in an effort to predict the consequences of conceivable scenarios. Discrete-event simulation modeling provided an effective supplement to disaster response procedures when simultaneously interface with and drive both planning systems and training...
This paper describes the simulation modeling for planning for the efficient transportation of patients following a disaster. Research was performed in an effort to predict the consequences of conceivable scenarios. Discrete-event simulation modeling provided an effective supplement to regular drill procedures when training emergency medical services personnel. Initial performance of the redesigned...

Disaster management depends on large volumes of comprehensive, accurate, relevant, on-time geo-information that various organizations systematically create and maintain. One cannot assure geo-information quality (G-IQ) without first being able to measure it meaningfully and establishing a causal connection between the source of G-IQ change, the G-IQ problem types, the types of activities affected,...
The objective of this paper is to propose an information quality (IQ) self-managing system using Reconfigurable Event-Driven Process Chain (R-EPC) simulation based analysis, which is capable to monitor network status, evaluate IQ, generate assuring strategies, and apply it to the network. To do this, we have employed the R-EPC formalism concept based on the advanced modeling and simulation environment...
