Since the inception of live coding, networked live coding has been present and is increasingly being used in practice. In this paper, we review existing works on networked live coding, associate such works with the dimensions of network music, and point out new opportunities in the field.

We sought to investigate the predispos...

Introduction While reports from individual hospitals have helped to provide insights into the causes of maternal mortality in low-income countries, they are often limited for policymaking at national and subnational levels. This multisite study was designed to determine maternal mortality ratios (MMRs) and identify the risk factors for maternal deaths in referral health facilities in Nigeria. ...

Pregnant women living in urban slums are a vulnerable group having limited access to urban healthcare facilities. Slums in the same city may differ from each other in their characteristics and health indicators. Hazardous maternal health practices are also common in the slums. Barriers to avail of healthcare services are well documented. This cross-sectional study was carried out in two urban s...

BACKGROUND Zambia's maternal mortality ratio was estimated at 398/100,000 live births in 2014. Successful aversion of deaths is dependent on availability and usability of signal functions for emergency obstetric and neonatal care. Evidence of availability, usability and quality of signal functions in urban settings in Zambia is minimal as previous research has evaluated their distribution in ru...

BACKGROUND Reliable and timely data on maternal and neonatal mortality is required to implement health interventions, monitor progress, and evaluate health programs at national and sub-national levels. In most South Asian countries, including Pakistan, vital civil registration and health information systems are inadequate. The aim of this study is to determine accurate maternal and perinatal mo...

This paper introduces a new direction in the field of artistic live coding where musical works are presented as pieces in the form of a live coding system. The system itself and the code affordances become equivalent to score system in an open musical work for strong improvisation.
