IT is deeply modifying the medical practices: Cloud-based solutions, including Social Computing, are growing in the medical field. However, this emergence of utility computing such as Cloud Computing makes the current desktop metaphor outdated. There is a need to open the desktop so that to, in addition to classical data, also consider actors and tasks as well as their relationships. This paper...

nowadays, wireless sensor network has been of interest to investigators and the greatest challenge in this part is the limited energy of sensors. sensors usually are in the harsh environments and transit in these environments is hard and impossible and moreover the nodes use non- replaceable batteries. because of this, saving energy is very important. in this paper we tried to decrease hard and...

introduction: in recent decades, several monte carlo codes have been introduced for research and medical applications. these methods provide both accurate and detailed calculation of particle transport from linear accelerators. the main drawback of monte carlo techniques is the extremely long computing time that is required in order to obtain a dose distribution with good statistical accuracy. ...

Medical ultrasonic imaging has been utilized in a variety of clinical diagnoses for many years. Recently, because of the needs of portable and mobile medical ultrasonic diagnoses, the development of real-time medical ultrasonic imaging algorithms on embedded computing platforms is a rising research direction. Typically, delay-and-sum beamforming algorithm is implemented on embedded medical ultr...

Ongoing developments in computing and data acquisition, along with continuous advances medical imaging technology, computational modelling, robotics visualization have revolutionized many specialties and, particular, diagnostic interventional cardiology [...]

Gregory F. Cooper Medical Computer Science Group Knowledge Systems Laboratory Stanford University Medical School Office Building, Room 217 Stanford, California 94305 An algorithm for computing probabilistic propositions is presented. It assumes the availability a single external routine for computing the probability of one instantiated variable1, given a conjunction of other instantiated variab...

Cloud computing is currently on everyone’s lips – it is of interest to researchers (to speed up computations), managers (to reduce costs), and also the general public (to access music everywhere). The information technology research and advisory firm Gartner Inc., for example, announced that cloud computing will be one out of ten top information technology topics in the next years. At least in ...

Security as part of requirements engineering is now seen as an essential part of systems development in several modern methodologies. Unfortunately, medical systems are one domain where security is seen as an impediment to patient care and not as an essential part of a system. Cloud computing may offer a seamless way to allow medical data to be transferred from patient to medical practitioners,...
