Docs: Coders

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

If you are a coder, you may be a data scientist or software engineer by training or are perhaps a quantitative researcher who spends a high proportion of their time writing code to undertake their work.

Role

The primary role of coders in ready4 modelling projects is to author modules that implement computational models.

Tools

The ready4 tools of most use to coders are the software framework libraries for authoring modules.

Benefits

ready4 provides an opportunity to write software that matters! Our aim is to help improve population health through empowering decision makers with better models. If you already write code for health-economic modelling projects, the ready4 software framework may help you enhance your impact (facilitating code re-use) and work-efficiency (through partial automation of code development and quality-assurance workflows).

Docs: Modellers

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

If you are a modeller, you are responsible for the overall implementation of a modelling study from initial conceptualisation through to analysis and reporting. You are likely to be an economist, epidemiologist or statistician and are probably reasonably comfortable with writing analysis scripts in statistical software (potentially including R), without necessarily being a coding wizard.

Role

The primary role of modellers in ready4 modelling projects is to use modules to undertake analyse as part of modelling projects.

Tools

The ready4 tools of most use to modellers are the software framework libraries for authoring model datasets and analyses and model module libraries for use in computational modelling.

Benefits of using ready4

We hope that ready4 can be of benefit to you by helping you to efficiently build on work by other modellers, to implement more reproducible workflows, and to share your work so that it can be reused.

Docs: Planners

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

If you are an planner, you contribute to policy development or service planning that aims to improve population health. You probably value the role of modelling to inform your work, but are likely to rely on others to provide much of the technical expertise to implement computational models.

Role

The primary role of planners in ready4 modelling projects is co-design and use of models to support decision making.

Tools

The ready4 tools of most use to planners are user-interfaces that convert computational models into useful decision aids.

Benefits of using ready4

We hope that ready4 can provide you with transparent reusable and updatable decision support.
