Making Hard Decisions with Decision Tools® is a new edition and teaches the fundamental ideas of decision analysis, without an overly technical explanation of the mathematics used in decision analysis. This new version has been purposefully written to be more relevant to students in business and engineering compared to previous versions. This new version also incorporates and implements the powerful DecisionTools® software by Palisade Corporation. At the end of each chapter, topics are illustrated with step-by-step instructions…

GuidelinesPublication 2012State-Transition Modeling: A Report of the ISPOR-SMDM Modeling Task Force-3
State-transition modeling includes both Markov model cohort simulation as well as individual-based (first-order Monte Carlo) …
State-transition modeling includes both Markov model cohort simulation as well as individual-based (first-order Monte Carlo) microsimulation. These models have been used in many different populations and diseases, and their applications range from personalized health care strategies to public health programs. Most frequently, state-transition models are used in the evaluation of risk factor interventions, screening, diagnostic procedures, treatment strategies, and disease management programs. Recommendations are made on choice of model type (cohort vs. individual-level model), model…
