We may not always like the speed of today’s world, but we still need to prepare students for working in a fast-paced environment. In library and information science (LIS) professions today, deadlines are becoming ever shorter, yet research into effects time pressure LIS is scarce. This pilot project aims develop test speed-training program improve students’ ability work under pressure. An exper...

Purpose: Due to the paucity of the information regarding the lower limb biomechanics in slow speeds running as well as  concentration of the majority of previous studies in a single movement plane, aim of the present study was investigation on a kinetic based analysis of lower limb’ joints with increasing running speed. Methods: 28 runners asked to stay on the belt speed of treadmill that was ...

BACKGROUND Global positioning systems (GPS), geographic information systems (GIS), and accelerometers are powerful tools to explain activity within a built environment, yet little integration of these tools has taken place. This study aimed to assess the feasibility of combining GPS, GIS, and accelerometry to understand transport-related physical activity (TPA) in adults. METHODS Forty adults...

Information theory is a statistical theory dealing with the relative state of detectors and physical systems. Because of this physicality of information, the classical framework of Shannon needs to be extended to deal with quantum detectors, perhaps moving at relativistic speeds, or even within curved spacetime. Considerable progress toward such a theory has been achieved in the last fifteen ye...

We describe an attempt to overcome information overload through information visualization — in a particular domain, group memory. A brief review of information visualization is followed by a brief description of our methodology. We Ž . discuss our system, which uses multidimensional scaling MDS to visualize relationships between documents, and which Ž . we tested on 60 subjects, mostly students...

increasing competitiveness between software companies , that stems from customer needs and new information technologies, obliges the companies to improve their products’ quality according to high speed and low cost. this research seeks to introduce and determine the software production assembly line, one of the software development approaches. a three stage questionnaire was used to collect inf...
