Supporting students with feedback and guidance while they work on networking exercises can be provided in on-campus universities by human course advisors. A shortcoming however is that these advisors are not continuously available for the students, especially when students are working on exercises independently from the university, e.g. at home using a virtual environment. In order to improve t...

This paper describes the development of a web-based authoring tool for Intelligent Tutoring Systems and focuses on its instructor modelling capabilities. The tool is called WEAR and aims to be useful to teachers and students of domains that make use of algebraic equations. Specifically, the tool provides assistance to human teachers while they are constructing exercises and it then monitors the...

The detection, coordination and response capabilities of critical infrastructure operators ultimately determine the economic and societal impact of infrastructure disruptions. Operational cyber security exercises are an important element of preparedness activities. Emulation testbeds are a promising approach for conducting multi-party operational cyber exercises. This paper demonstrates how an ...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of squat exercises performed in toilet-using postures on the blood flow velocity of the lower extremities for the prevention of deep vein thrombosis. [Subjects] The subjects were 28 students who were attending B University in Cheonan. They were divided into a group of 14 subjects of sitting toilet users and a group of 14 subjects o...

The aim of this study is to investigate the capability of a 6-DoF parallel robot to perform various rehabilitation exercises. The foot trajectories of twenty healthy participants have been measured by a Vicon system during the performing of four different exercises. Based on the kinematics and dynamics of a parallel robot, a MATLAB program was developed in order to calculate the length of the a...
