This paper uses the Open University of the Netherlands as an instructive case for the introduction of elearning based on the IMS Learning Design specification (IMS LD). The IMS LD specification, as approved by the IMS Global Learning Consortium in 2003, enables the specification and encoding of learning scenarios that describe any design of a teaching-learning process, i.e. support events, exch...

This study utilized the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use Technology (UTAUT) model to analyze adoption utilization field incident management system (IMS) in a manufacturing organization. The specifically focused on role behavior as key factor system. Data was collected through survey employees who had IMS UTAUT used data. results indicated that significantly influenced IMS. also found provid...

The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) enables the delivery of multimedia services through different access networks. 3GPP adopted Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) as the IMS signalling protocol. However, IMS interaction with these services faces the “Feature Interaction” problem encountered in traditional telephony networks. This problem occurs as features invoked during a session behave correctly...

Educational Modelling Languages (EMLs) have been proposed to enable the authoring of models of learning units (e.g., courses, lessons, lab practices, seminars) covering the broad variety of pedagogical approaches. In addition, some EMLs have been proposed as computational languages that support the processing of learning unit models by appropriate Learning Management Systems (LMSs). In this con...

IMS Learning Design (IMS LD) is an open specification to support interoperability of advanced educational designs for a wide range of technology-enhanced learning solutions and other units of learning. This paper analyses approaches to model personalised learning experiences with and without explicit adaptive features in IMS LD. The paper has two main parts. The first part analyses the relation...

Immunomagnetic separation (IMS) can selectively isolate and concentrate Mycobacterium bovis cells from lymph node tissue to facilitate subsequent detection by PCR (IMS-PCR) or culture (IMS-MGIT). This study describes application of these novel IMS-based methods to test for M. bovis in a survey of 280 bovine lymph nodes (206 visibly lesioned (VL), 74 non-visibly lesioned (NVL)) collected at slau...

This paper presents an experimental framework for implementation of an IMS/NGN reference service scenario by means of open source software. Multiple service enablers are deployed to build this service scenario. Interoperability tests between the deployed IMS entities and user equipment are carried out, as well as performance measurements of signaling overhead and delay of different IMS procedur...
