Additional Activities and
Skills:
Development of Population Database Management Systems:
- Computer
system for
mortality analysis: Factographic Automated
Information Reference System (FAIRS) "Potential" (with S.P.Ermakov and
G.N.Evdokushkina) is used for analyses of mortality trends and
differentials based on cause-specific and region-specific
Russian
official
vital statistics. Certified in 1996 by the Committee for Information
Policy at the Russian President (Registration Certificate #602 of
October
1, 1996). Used in data preparation for the special issue of Vital and
Health Statistics by the National Center of Health Statistics (Vital
and Health Statistics: Russian Federation and United States, Selected
Years 1980-93, Series 5, No.9, 1995). Reference: Ermakov,

System
#2
(FAIRS-2)
"Potential." This system was implemented in the Sverdlovsk
region
of Russia in 1988 and has since accumulated information on more than
50,000 death certificates each year in electronic form.
