EFFICIENT PARALLEL PROCESSING WITH OPTICAL INTERCONNECTIONS

Evidence of effectiveness does not equal successful implementation. To progress the field, practical tools are needed to bridge the gap between research and practice and to truly unite effectiveness and implementation evidence. This paper describes the Knowledge Transfer Scheme integrating existing implementation research frameworks into a tool which has been developed specifically to bridge th...

Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is an inductive learning approach that uses a realistic problem as the starting point of learning. Unlike in medical education, which is more easily adaptable to PBL, implementing PBL in engineering courses in the traditional semester system setup is challenging. While PBL is normally implemented in small groups of up to ten students with a dedicated tutor during PB...

INTRODUCTION Interdisciplinary collaboration is a critical component of translation, dissemination, implementation, and improvement (TDII) science. Yet, little is known about effective frameworks and practices regarding interdisciplinary research in TDII. METHODS This study drew on data collected from an expert panel during a regional symposium. RESULTS Findings highlight facilitators and b...

Personal communication systems of the future will augment the mobile phone concept to include multimedia services such as: digitised speech, data, e-mail, paging, fax, GPS, still image compression, compressed/slow scan video and eventually real-time video. The many potential applications for this technology include use of mobiìe telecommunications in areas of teleprescence such as telemedicine,...

It is presumed that recent technological innovations, combined with three more established (educational) technologies, could cause a drastic change in university education, if adequate organizational conditions could be created. Such conditions are needed to structure, channel and manage an as yet undreamed of flow of information. Closely related to the metaphor of the 'Info Highway', an educat...

Teleworking has been identified as a potential key lever for reducing air pollution. Yet, evaluating the atmospheric outcomes of teleworking enhancing policies remains difficult, especially when official databases on telework, household equipment and car emissions are incomplete or nonexistent. Here we propose several techniques to efficiently assess impact an increase in rates, explore resulti...
