Cost–effectiveness thresholds: pros and cons
Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 2016 Cost–effectiveness analysis is used to compare the costs and outcomes of alternative policy options. Each resulting cost–effectiveness ratio represents the magnitude of additional health gained per additional unit of resources spent.

Cost-effective clustering [PDF]
Computer Physics Communications, 2001 Small Beowulf clusters can effectively serve as personal or group supercomputers. In such an environment, a cluster can be optimally designed for a specific problem (or a small set of codes). We discuss how theoretical analysis of the code and benchmarking on similar hardware lead to optimal systems.

Impact of a cost functional on the optimal control and the cost-effectiveness: control of a spreading infection as a case study [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In applications of the optimal control theory to problems in medicine and biology, the dependency of the objective functional on the control itself is often a matter of controversy. In this paper, we explore the impact of the dependency using reasonably simple \emph{SIR} and \emph{SEIRS} epidemic models.

Cost-effectiveness and Benefit-to-Harm Ratio of Risk-Stratified Screening for Breast Cancer
JAMA Oncology, 2018 Importance The age-based or “one-size-fits-all” breast screening approach does not take into account the individual variation in risk. Mammography screening reduces death from breast cancer at the cost of overdiagnosis.
