aim and background: multiple sclerosis (ms) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system in which primary symptoms emerges in adults between the age 20 and 40 years old. previous findings indicate 15-20 percent of multiple sclerosis (ms) patients are diagnosed with executive function impairments. the purpose of this study is to evaluate planning function as one of executive f...

One resource playing a critical role in computer supported decision-making groups is the facilitator. Facilitation is a complex task, encompassing social abilities, pre-meeting planning of decision-making processes and supervising the technology usage during meetings. We identify one problem with current support to electronic facilitators: agenda builders do not allow inexperienced facilitators...

The performance of non-trivial tasks by a mobile robot has been a long term objective of robotic research. One of the major stumbling blocks to this goal is the conversion of the high-level planning goals and commands into the actuator and sensor processing controls. In order for a mobile robot to accomplish a non-trivial task, the task must be described in terms of primitive actions of the rob...

In corrective osteotomy of the radius, detailed preoperative planning is essential to optimising functional outcome. However, complex malunions are not completely addressed with conventional preoperative planning. Computer-assisted preoperative planning may optimise the results of corrective osteotomy of the radius. We analysed the pre- and postoperative radiological result of computer-assisted...

O Plan is a command planning and control architecture which has an open modular structure intended to allow experimentation on or replacement of various components The research is seeking to isolate functionality that may be generally required in a number of applications and across a number of di erent planning scheduling and control systems The aim of this paper is to describe the Constraint A...
