Cost-Efficient Risk Management with Reserve Repair Crew Planning in CLOUD Computing

This article addresses a discrete event CLOUD simulator, namely CLOURAM (CLOUD Risk Assessor and Manager) to estimate the risk indices in large CLOUD computing environments, comparing favorably with the intractably theoretical Markov solutions or hand calculations that are limited in scope. The goal is to optimize the quality of a CLOUD operation and what countermeasures to take to minimize threats to the service quality by reserve planning of reserve crew members. Cost and benefit analysis is examined after the solutions.

CLOUD Computing: Cost-Effective Risk Management with Additional Product Deployment

This article addresses a discrete event CLOUD simulator and manager, CLOURAM to estimate the risk indices in large CLOUD computing environments, comparing favorably with the intractably theoretical Markov solutions or hand calculations that are limited in scope. The goal is to optimize the quality of a CLOUD operation and what countermeasures to take to minimize threats to the service quality by reserve planning of additional product capacity to be deployed. Following, cost and benefit analysis is demonstrated.

Risk Assessment and Management to Estimate and Improve Hospital Credibility Score of Patient Health Care Quality

The purpose of this chapter is to study how to assess patient-centered health-care quality and as a follow-up, how to mitigate the unwanted risk to a tolerable level, through automated software utilizing game-theoretic risk computing. Chapter overall seeks methods about how to improve patient-centered quality of care in the light of uncertain nationwide health care quality mandate to disseminate and utilize results for the “most bang for the buck”. A patient-centered composite ‘credibility’ or ‘satisfaction’ score is proposed for the mutual benefit of patients seeking quality care, and hospitals delivering the promised healthcare, and insurance companies facilitating a financially accountable healthcare. Patient-centered quality of care risk assessment and management are inseparable aspects of health care in a hospital, yet both are frequently overlooked. In Alabama State, a 2004 study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found substantial dissatisfaction with the quality of health care. In response to whether they were dissatisfied with the quality of healthcare, 44 % of Latinos, 73 % of Blacks, and 56 % of Whites said “Yes”. When asked whether health care has gotten worse in the prior five years prior, 39 % of Latinos, 56 % of Blacks, and 38 % of Whites reported dissatisfaction.
