JGuiB is a graphic front-end (GUI) written in Java SE (used to be called "J2SE"; compiled with JDK v5.0 update 04) designed and implemented to work with Boomer which is an excellent PK/PD modeling program.

One does not eventually need JGuiB at all to run Boomer if he or she is familiar with Boomer under MS-DOS or Terminal mode (MacOS X). JGuiB turns interactive (menu-driven) mode of Boomer into a GUI-based (window) application using command-line mode of Boomer. JGuiB includes three most commonly used functions of Boomer in PK/PD modeling: normal fitting, simulation and Bayesian estimation.

JGuiB can process more than one PK/PD model (max. 4 models in one project file) with various weighting schemes simultaneously using one data set. Meanwhile, Bayesian estimation can also be applied to the field of clinical pharmacokinetic services with only one single data point Cp at steady-state.

Thanks to Dr. Bourne - the maker of Boomer, for his sincere assistance through the whole project. Currently, JGuiB supports both PC (Linux-Fedora Core 2 or 3; Win 9.x/ME/NT/XP for PC Intel x86) and Macintosh (MacOS X) computers.

Requirements:
Java 1.4.2 or later

Limitations:
You can't do 'Save' or 'Save as...' for the project files or to generate .bat file with the shareware version.

What's New in This Release:
alter the URL of "link to JGuiB website" BUTTON;
add additional error type (EXP) of simulation for Boomer v3.2; and
modify the .bat building algorithm to follow Boomer version from v3.1.7 when simulation analysis. to add equal
weighting option(0) after error type in .bat building algorithm.
