Abstract
The threat of AIDS is widely recognized as an important educational problem, particularly in the college age population. To date, intelligent software has not been developed and employed to effectively disseminate the critical knowledge relevant to this epidemic. Since sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) as a group are a personal problem which few people feel comfortable discussing, the computer can provide an opportunity for learning about these diseases while insuring anonymity.

Emerging infectious disease: trends in the literature on SARS and H7N9 influenza
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and human infection H7N9 influenza are emerging infectious diseases having a relatively high mortality. Epidemics of each began in China. By searching through Science Citation Index, this study analyzed the ...
An ontology-driven clinical decision support system (IDDAP) for infectious disease diagnosis and antibiotic prescription
A decision support system (DSS) is proposed for assisting in prescription of antibiotics at the point of primary care.The DSS adopts a patient-centered, step-wise decision support system using subjective judgment of the patients.Based on the re-use of ...
Planning for infectious disease outbreaks: a geographic disease spread, clinic location, and resource allocation simulation
WSC '10: Proceedings of the Winter Simulation ConferenceIn the event of an outbreak of a highly contagious communicable disease, public health departments often open mass-vaccination or antiviral dispensing clinics to treat the infected population or reduce the further spread of disease. In this research, we ...
