Energy efficiency control of direct expansion air conditioning systems

“…To realize this objective and to consider the interaction effects between rooms, we present an autonomous hierarchical distributed control (AHDC) method. The upper level is an open loop nonlinear optimizer, which only collects measurement information and solves a distributed steady state optimization problem to adaptively and automatically generate time-varying and optimised reference points of indoor CO2 concentration, relative humidity and air temperature for the lower-layer controllers, by minimizing the demand and energy costs of a multi-zone building ME A/C system under the TOU price structure of electricity according to the changing circumstance during the day. …”

Mode of transport to hospital among patients with ST Elevation Acute Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi: correlates, physician and patient attitudes, and ass... by Callachan, Edward

“…Objectives: In this three-part quantitative, observational study, we sought to (1) assess physicians' perceptions of, and recommendations for, utilization and improvement of EMS, (2) assess patients' awareness of EMS, mode of transport use in decision to seek care and reasons for their decision, and (3) establish if in the current study setting, mode of transport used has implications for in hospital adverse events, as well as short and long term clinical outcomes. …”

Outcomes and cost-effectiveness of different models of delivery of antiretroviral therapy by Leisegang, Rory

“…These cohorts had important strengths in their data: adherence measures (private, PPP); initiating ART at CD4 counts > 200 cells/µL (private); detailed cost data (private); long duration of follow-up with a larger proportion on second-line ART (private); ability to assess health care utilization pre-ART and in patient loss to ART follow-up (private); and availability of national identity numbers, allowing us to confirm mortality from national death register data (private, PPP). …”
