The UniForM Workbench is an open ended tool integration framework for developing (formal) Software Development Environments (SDE) from the basis of prefabricated oo-the-shelf development tools. The integration framework provides support for data, control and presentation integration as well as utilities for wrapping Haskell interfaces around existing development tools. Entire SDE's are then glu...

BACKGROUND Foot orthoses are frequently used for the prevention of lower limb overuse injuries but evidence for their effectiveness is limited. The primary aim of this study is to determine if prefabricated foot orthoses reduce the incidence of lower limb overuse injuries in naval recruits undertaking 11 weeks of basic training. METHODS This study is a participant and assessor blinded, parall...

Prefabricated construction becomes an increasingly important mode especially for buildings that require a short time. The of Huoshenshan Hospital shows how efficient prefabricated could be. In order to provide clearer blueprint improve time performance in construction, this paper identifies 13 critical success factors associated with and groups them into five categories—project planning design,...

Prefabricated buildings have comprehensive advantages over traditional buildings, but the reasons for incremental cost in construction stage are complex and need to be solved urgently. This paper takes prefabricated components that greatest impact on of as research object, divides process into three stages: production, transportation site installation components, studies interrelation each comb...

In this paper we present a novel approach, under the ULYSSES framework, to cope with accessible user interface management issues that arouse during the design, installation and maintenance of independently developed prefabricated software parts derived from multiple vendors and each one having its own GUI. ULYSSES constitutes a software engineering framework that facilitates Component Based Dev...

SUMMARY We herein report a successful preconstruction of the pars pendulans urethrae with the ileum mucosa for phalloplasty in a one-arm patient using a prefabricated anterolateral thigh flap. After a 2-stage operation and an 18-month follow-up, the patient achieved a good postoperative appearance and an excellent function of neophallus. We believe the use of digestive mucosa for urethral recon...

Constructing software systems by composing prefabricated components is always an intuitive and attractive vision for software development. For many years, de-compositional/compositional mechanisms and semantics specification constructs have been introduced to make the design and composition of large systems tractable, reusable and effective. Recently, in the reuse-related research activities, r...

The Branemark Novum system is a one-day treatment of the edentulous or periodontally hopeless mandibular dentition. There are four drill templates and eight drill guides that precisely position three implants which are totally parallel and level. A prefabricated lower bar is placed on the three implants, and an upper bar fits on the lower bar. The restorative dentist has previously selected den...
