Health Informatics: The Relevance of Open Source and Multilevel Modeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
Health information features significant spatial-temporal and domain complexities, which brings challenges to the implementation of patient-centered, interoperable and semantically coherent healthcare information systems. This position paper supports the idea that the multilevel modeling approach is essential to ensure interoperability at the semantic level, but true interoperability is only achieved by the adoption of open standards, and open source implementations are needed for promote competition based on software quality. The Multilevel Healthcare Information Modelling (MLHIM) specifications are presented as the fully open source multilevel modeling reference implementation, and best practices for the development of multilevel-based open source healthcare applications are

Transformer-based Single-source Multilevel Inverter with Reduction in Number of Transformers
Single-source binary hybrid multilevel inverters with cascaded transformers have a bulky transformer connected to their main H-bridge cells in each phase. This bulky transformer has been eliminated in this work without any effect on operation and modulation strategies. The proposed topology has significant advantages from view point of dimensions and number of transformers, design of transforme...
متن کاملTowards surgeon-authored VR training: the scene-development cycle
Enabling surgeon-educators to themselves create virtual reality (VR) training units promises greater variety, specialization, and relevance of the units. This paper describes a software bridge that semi-automates the scene-generation cycle, a key bottleneck in authoring, modeling, and developing VR units. Augmenting an open source modeling environment with physical behavior attachment and colli...

متن کاملNetwork Location and Risk of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Transmission among Injecting Drug Users: Results of Multiple Membership Multilevel Modeling of Social Networks
Background: Despite the implementation of harm reduction program, some injecting drug users (IDU) continue to engage in high-risk behaviors. It seems that there are some social factors that contribute to risk of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission in IDUs. The aim of this study was to analysis the social network of IDUs and examines the effect of network location on HIV transmission...
متن کاملModular Multilevel Current Source Inverter Using Two-Switch Basic Units
This article is an introduction of a new topology of current source inverter (CSI) which can be alternatively implemented in low/medium power applications. This configuration is organized from series connected sub-multilevel inverters blocks. The basis of the recommended multilevel topology is the connections of many cell units in a decent scheme with the help of H-bridge inverter. The suggeste...
