Ontology-based Virtual Data Integration for E-Science Girds
For scientific collaboration, sharing data between different parties is fundamental. Grids, originally developed for high-performance and parallel computing, enable the sharing of distributed resources across institutional boundaries by providing a security infrastructure and standardized Grid-services. Because data is usually stored in different information systems and schemes, at the moment t...

Increasing missed opportunity costs should drive individuals progressively to patches with lower food density as ...
متن کاملLean six sigma process improvement in specimen receiving to improve stat chemistry turnaround times
Objective: As a consequence of stat turnaround times (TATs) chronically exceeding 60 minutes, our laboratory was facing pressure to divert limited resources toward the implementation of an emergency department satellite laboratory. Peer-reviewed literature in clinical laboratory quality assurance and improvement indicates that between 60-70% of errors occur at the pre-analytical level. Thus...
