Understanding of Anesthesia Machine Function is Enhanced with a Transparent Reality Simulation
, 2007
"... Introduction: Photorealistic simulations may provide efficient transfer of certain skills to the real system, but by being opaque may fail to encourage deeper learning of the structure and function of the system. Schematic simulations that are more abstract, with less visual fidelity but make syste ..."

of simulation type with educational level is surprising, and impressive. The undergraduates were, for the most part, freshmen and sophomores, many of whom will ultimately engage in careers other than in the health sciences. Even the medical students are still some distance from those who are the ultimate
Efficient Mobile Data Collection with Mobile Collect
"... Abstract—The main task of most deployed wireless sensor networks is data collection. While a number of solutions have been designed for static networks, there are currently no widely used data collection algorithms for mobile sensor networks. In this paper, we concentrate on scenarios where many nod ..."

nodes, both data sources and sinks, move along a certain track in one direction, a scenario that is common in sports events. Rather than designing a new protocol from scratch, we extend an existing data collection protocol with lightweight mechanisms to make it efficient for mobility. Our extensive
Perspective An Online Bioinformatics Curriculum
"... Abstract: Online learning initia-tives over the past decade have become increasingly comprehen-sive in their selection of courses and sophisticated in their presen-tation, culminating in the recent announcement of a number of consortium and startup activities that promise to make a university educat ..."

education on the internet, free of charge, a real possibility. At this pivotal moment it is appropriate to explore the potential for obtaining comprehensive bioinformatics training with currently existing free video resources. This article pre-sents such a bioinformatics curric-ulum in the form of a virtual
ACTA UNIVERSITATIS UPSALIENSIS
"... Wireless sensor networks are used to collect sensor data in different applications such as environmental monitoring, smart building control, and health care applications. Wireless sensor nodes used are typically small, low-cost, and battery powered. The nodes are often hard to access after deploymen ..."

deployment, for example when they are in remote locations. Another property of wireless sensor networks is that their operation is dependent on the environment they operate in, both due to the specific sensor readings but also due to the effects on communication by factors such as fading and radio
