Systems Analytics Theory and Applications for Health Systems Planning
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Envisioning and planning for future health systems requires the ability to deal with complex interdependencies and uncertainties. To address these challenges, systems analytics approaches are available for evidence-based planning at the macro-, meso-, and microplanning levels. These approaches are built on a diverse toolkit that traditionally includes (but is not limited to) agent-based modelling, discrete event simulation, network analysis, and system dynamics. Systems analytics is rooted in various multidisciplinary domains (e.g., decision science, industrial engineering, operations research, and management science). This Topic will bring together advances in systems analytics research and application in the strategic, tactical, and/or operational planning of future health systems.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.
MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:
- Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
- Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
- Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
- Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
- Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
