Background Recognizing the significant impact of wait times for care for individuals with complex chronic conditions, we applied a LEAN methodology, namely – an adaptation of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) to meet the needs of people with multiple chronic conditions and to improve wait times without additional resources or funding.   Methods Over an 18-month time period, staff applied a patient-cen...

South Africa's public procurement system is accorded constitutional status, establishing fundamental requirements for the operation of system. The application these and their interpretation in judicial adjudication cases have highlighted tension between administrative, or process-centric, legal system-centric nature procedures. importance a deterministic approach decision-making can be consider...

In this thesis, we present our newly invented system RelAndXML for the management and storage of hypertext-centric XML documents and the according XSL stylesheets. Our sample application area is the course material at university. Typically, course material is being reused on multiple assignments, while it is also important to add or replace questions. Currently, teaching assistants use differen...

This article introduces the first general reuse-centric accelerator for CNN inferences. Unlike prior work that exploits similarities only across consecutive video frames, is able to discover among arbitrary patches within an image or independent images, and translate them into computation time ...

In this paper, the authors have amplified concept that EHRs need to be patient-centric and patient-driven, is patient should real owner as well manager of his medical records. The propose multichain healthcare record (PCMHR) implements health records using smart contracts on ethereum blockchain also utilizes framework - Polygon. PCMHR can concurrently implement functionality while addressing co...

Most data retrieval mechanisms in wireless sensor networks adopt a data-centric approach, in which data is identified directly by name rather than through the location of the node on which it is stored. Initial data-centric methods, such as directed diffusion and TinyDB/TAG, focused on the conveyance of data. One of the advantages of these algorithms is that they do not require pointto-point ro...

background: nickel–titanium (niti) rotary instrumentation carries a risk of fracture, mainly as a result of fl exural (fatigue fracture) and torsional (shear failure) stresses. this risk might be reduced by creating a glide path before niti rotary instrumentation. the aim of this study was to compare various root canal parameters with the new waveone single-fi le reciprocating system in mesial ...
