CONTEXT The School of Nursing and Midwifery at the University of Tasmania, Australia, is the only bachelor of nursing provider in the State of Tasmania. This arrangement is unique among Australian states, which all have multiple providers. In Tasmania's situation, community based nursing students are dispersed for their clinical practica across metropolitan, urban, rural and remote clinical nur...

The Simple Query Interface (SQI) is a query transport standard that is becoming widely used within the e-learning community. Thanks to a common WSDL binding, SQI-compliant repositories of learning resources can query each other. This common binding directly maps the SQI specification. As a consequence, many remote calls (known to present an important latency) are necessary to query a repository...

a study of substantial anthropogenic related pollution in the coastal samut prakarn province (thailand) was carried out focusing on the bang pu nature reserve (remnant mangrove wetland) using a remote sensing (geospatial) technique. statistical regression models were developed between biochemical parameters of sample point and related reflectance data obtained from satellite imagery (landsat tm...

A system called MAGPIE (Multipurpose Automated Genome Project Investigation Environment) has been designed and implemented to meet the challenges of automated whole genome analysis. The system initiates large numbers of remote and local transactions, each depending on evolving criteria and on changing remote and local conditions. Transactions are requested from different types of remote and loc...

The console gaming industry is experiencing a revolution in terms of user control, due in large part to Nintendo’s introduction of the Wii remote. The online open source development community has embraced the Wii remote, integrating the inexpensive technology into numerous applications. Some of the more interesting applications demonstrate how the remote hardware can be leveraged for nonstandar...

In recent years the use of remote sensing imagery to classify and map vegetation over different spatial scales has gained wide acceptance in the research community. Many national and regional datasets have been derived using remote sensing data. However, much of this research was undertaken using multispectral remote sensing datasets. With advances in remote sensing technologies, the use of hyp...
