We present a simple edit-time metaobject protocol (ETMOP) which runs as part of a code editor and enables metadata annotations to customize the rendering and editing of code. The protocol is layered, so that simple render/edit customizations are easy to implement, while more substantial customizations are still manageable. Experiments with a prototype implementation of the protocol as an Eclips...

For increased and various communication requirements of modern applications on embedded systems, general purpose protocol stacks and protocol models are not efficient because they are fixed to execute in the static mode. We present the Component-Based Communication Protocol Architecture (CCPA) to make communication dynamic and configurable. It can develop, test and store the customized componen...

Purpose: to map, through a literature survey, which instruments are used assess swallowing in patients after orotracheal extubation. Methods: available evidence was mapped six electronic databases and gray literature. There were no restrictions regarding gender, ethnicity of the individuals, language studies, time publication, diagnosis. Results: most mentioned protocol studies Dysphagia Risk E...

Ad hoc networks may not be suitable for “non ad hoc” applications due to resource, mobility, traffic pattern and incompatible wireless MAC protocols issues. We propose the Hierarchical Mobile Wireless Network for providing flexible and scalable network services to these applications. In such a system, mobile hosts are organized into hierarchical groups. Four basic operations that are used to se...

In order to provide communication services in Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs) where it lacks of end-to-end paths between the communication sources and destinations, a variety of routing schemes have been proposed. Consequently, the DTN research community needs a credible, flexible and large scale platform to accurately evaluate their performance. Existing simulation tools and wildlife testb...
