AB Improvements  in  the  quantitative  analysis  of  drugs  in  biological  tissues,  such  as  plasma,  and  the  increasing  sophistication  of  computers  and  software  along  with  access  to  the  Internet  have  greatly  accelerated  the  development  of  pharmacokinetics.  Computer  software  programs  now  allow  for  the  rapid  solution  of  complicated  pharmacokinetic  equations  and  rapid  modeling  of  pharmacokinetic  processes.  Computers  simplify  tedious  calculations  and  allow  more  time  for  the  development  of  new  approaches  to  data  analysis  and  pharmacokinetic  modeling.  In  addition,  computer  software  is  used  for  the  development  of  experimental  study  designs,  statistical  data  treatment,  data  manipulation,  graphical  representation  of  data,  pharmacokinetic  model  simulation,  and  projection  or  prediction  of  drug  action.  Furthermore,  computers  are  used  frequently  for  written  reports,  documentation,  and  archiving.
