This paper describes a methodology for developing digital twin (DT) based on rich semantic model and principles of system engineering. The aim is to provide general twins that can improve decision making reasoning real-time monitoring. has been tested laboratory pilot plant acts as material handling system. key contribution this research propose generic information DT using foundational ontolog...

Researcher: Yoko Kunii Title: Student Pilot Situational Awareness: The Effects of Trust in Technology Institution: Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Degree: Master of Science in Aeronautics Year: 2006 The purpose of this research was to evaluate the general level of trust in technology in student pilots and then to determine the relationship between pilots’ trust and their situational awaren...

To determine whether rapid HIV tests in public health centers might encourage voluntary HIV testing, a pilot project was conducted in four selected public health centers in Seoul, 2014. During the period April 10 to November 28 of pilot project, 3,356 rapid tests were performed, and 38 were confirmed as positive. The monthly average numbers of voluntary HIV tests and HIV-positive cases were up ...

In this paper we argue that e-government initiatives need to take the competence involved in producing high-quality services for citizens into account. We draw on insights from a Pilot project in a Norwegian municipal aiming at radically re-structuring the Norwegian welfare sector and show how the competence to provide high-quality services rely on the collective achievement of individuals’ kno...

This paper discusses the design and implementation of a citizen science pilot project, COMBER (Citizens' Network for the Observation of Marine BiodivERsity, http://www.comber.hcmr.gr), which has been initiated under the ViBRANT EU e-infrastructure. It is designed and implemented for divers and snorkelers who are interested in participating in marine biodiversity citizen science projects. It sho...

On average, by the time when 1% of the project costs are spent in the design phase, roughly 70% of the life-cycle cost of the building has been committed. Therefore, it is essential to integrate the multidisciplinary knowledge over the life-cycle of the building into design. Building Information Modelling (BIM) is one of the most important supporting factors for a successful integrated design. ...

The reflection of an object can be distorted by undulations of the reflector, be it a funhouse mirror or a fluid surface. Painters and photographers have long exploited this effect, for example, in imaging scenery distorted by ripples on a lake. Here, we use this phenomenon to visualize micrometric surface waves generated as a millimetric droplet bounces on the surface of a vibrating fluid bath...

The present paper aims to highlight certain relevant and new features revealed by the research on assisted training. The motivation is given by the necessity to efficiently develop the educational resources by combining reusable learning objects, and also by the need to customize training in order to meet specific user options. The main objective is to design a flexible framework for assembling...

We developed a Web-based application delivered on PDAs (Colecta-PALM in Peru, Pambazuko-PALM in Kenya), to collect data from HIV patients and to facilitate HIV provider training. Colecta-PALM provides tailored feedback (behavioral messaging) based on risk assessment responses for HIV patients. Pambazuko-PALM collects patient risk assessment data, and delivers counseling protocol training and ev...

Arterial blood gas analyses provide information about the patient's oxygenation, ventilation, and perfusion. Studies have shown that most errors occur during the pre-analytical phase (the processes prior to the actual analysis of the sample). 1st Automatic is an extra module to the existing blood gas analyzer and a partial automation of the pre-analytical phase which is designed to reduce these...
