Retrial Queueing Systems : A Computational Approach
Retrial Queueing Systems: A Computational Approach also : Presents motivating examples in telephone and computer networks. / Establishes a comparative analysis of the retrial queues versus standard queues with waiting lines and queues with losses. / Integrates a wide range of techniques applied to the main M/G/1 and M/M/c retrial queues, and variants with general retrial times, finite population and the discrete-time case. / Surveys basic results of the matrix-analytic formalism and emphasizes the related tools employed in retrial queues. / Discusses a few selected retrial queues with QBD, GI/M/1 and M/G/1 structures.
Polymorphism in the pharmaceutical industry : Solid form and drug development
Highlights the relevance of polymorphism in modern pharmaceutical chemistry, with a focus on quality by design (QbD) concepts. It covers all important issues by way of case studies, ranging from properties and crystallization, via thermodynamics, analytics and theoretical modelling right up to patent issues. The book underscores the importance of solid-state chemistry within chemical and pharmaceutical development. It emphasizes why solid-state issues are important, the approaches needed to avoid problems and the opportunities offered by solid-state properties. The authors include true polymorphs as well as solvates and hydrates, while providing information on physicochemical properties, crystallization thermodynamics, quantum-mechanical modelling, and up-scaling. Important analytical tools to characterize solid-state forms and to quantify mixtures are summarized, and case studies on solid-state development processes in industry are also provided.
Pharmaceutical Quality by Design : A Practical Approach
Outlines a new and proven approach to pharmaceutical product development which is now being rolled out across the pharmaceutical industry internationally. Written by experts in the field, the text explores the QbD approach to product development. This innovative approach is based on the application of product and process understanding underpinned by a systematic methodology which can enable pharmaceutical companies to ensure that quality is built into the product.
Method validation in pharmaceutical analysis
Provides hands-on information for readers involved in development, validation, and continued maintenance and evaluation of analytical procedures in pharmaceutical analysis. This newly revised and updated Third Edition includes much-needed interpretation of the most recent ICH guidelines for validation and method development, as well as recent publications of the USP on Analytical Procedure Lifecycle Management and the activities of the British Pharmacopeia AQbD Working Party. It also addresses hot topics in the field such as data integrity and continuous monitoring of analytical performance.
Computer Aided Pharmaceutics and Drug Delivery : An Application Guide for Students and Researchers of Pharmaceutical Sciences
Examines the role of computer-assisted techniques for discovering, designing, optimizing and manufacturing new, effective, and safe pharmaceutical formulations and drug delivery systems. The book discusses computational approaches, statistical modeling and molecular modeling for the development and safe delivery of drugs in humans. The application of concepts of QbD (Quality by Design), DoE (Design of Experiments), artificial intelligence and in silico pharmacokinetic assessment/simulation have been made a lot easier with the help of commercial software and expert systems. This title provides in-depth knowledge of such useful software with illustrations from the latest researches. The book also fills in the gap between pharmaceutics and molecular modeling at micro, meso and maro scale by covering topics such as advancements in computer-aided Drug Design (CADD), drug-polymer interactions in drug delivery systems, molecular modeling of nanoparticles and pharmaceutics/bioinformatics.
