Abstract:

In this thesis, a scalable, highly available and reactive RabbitMQ cluster is implemented on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. An alternative solution was created on AWS using the CloudFormation service. These solutions are performance tested using the RabbitMQ PerfTest tool by simulating high loads with varied parameters. The test results are used to analyze the throughput and price-performance ratio for a chosen set of instances on the respective cloud platforms. How performance changes between instance family types and cloud platforms is tested and discussed. Additional conclus

Abstract:

This thesis examines patient generated health data in the context of healthcare services where information asymmetry traditionally enshrined the doctor as all-powerful and the patient as a passive recipient. Through vignette-led interviews and a clinical trial, the research highlights the role of this information in the co-created process of patient engagement, then demonstrates how it promotes healthcare self-determination and consumer empowerment. Patient generated health data aids diagnosis and management of health conditions, and provides significant emotional value for patients and their

Abstract:

Low-value health care provides little benefit relative to its cost. Australian policy makers, health care payers and providers want to reduce its use due to unnecessary costs and harms. These decisions, however, need to be informed by the measurement of low-value care in the context of Australia’s mixed public-private health care system. This thesis investigated low-value procedures using routinely collected data and direct measures. Direct measures use patient- or episode-level clinical information to distinguish low-value from appropriate care. Based on our review of the literature, we intr

This increase in complexity can lead to ineffective decision-making and reduce care quality for the individual while increasing costs. One promising direction to tackle these issues is the active involvement of the patient in managing their care.
