The Cubi9000 family includes a range of products from the 3D graphics terminal up to the 3D graphics workstation. The Cubi9000 when configured as a 3D graphics terminal connects to a host computer via a parallel interface from Digital Equipment Corporation. The Cubi9000 configured as workstation includes a UNIX2 based mini-computer with a 32 bit microprocessor, mass memory, device handlers (mou...

Evaluating the correctness of medical software usage is critically important in healthcare system management. Turf [1] is a software that can effectively collect interactions between user and computer. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to compare the recorded human-computer interaction events with a predefined path. Based on the pass/fail results, statistical analysis methods are proposed ...

Computer graphics matured over many years and played an important role in the development of engineering products like automotive and aircraft components. The current CAX (CAD/CAM/CAE) tools use computer graphics extensively, while helping in conceiving better designs with improved quality. Nowadays, engineering product development is being done concurrently and collaboratively, due to the adva...

This article presents and empirically evaluates a conceptual mode/of how training can impact the acceptance of information systems within the organization. Specifically, the training of end users is explored via an extensive field study of 1 O0 middleand upper-level managers from 20 companies. The results indicate that (1) a positive relationship exists between the computer-related training an ...

In the last years, computer simulation has reached a significant position in the investigation and development of technical products. Simulation programmes and computer utilization have found application also in the area of electrical devices. At our workplace we have used simulation programmes for many years to investigate transient phenomena mainly at short-circuit current breaking in miniatu...

introduction. today, computer and information technology serve an increasingly important role in medical education. since the faculty members have an essential role in medical education, this study was designed to assess their knowledge, attitude and computer skills. so, the results of this survey would help us to identify and manage the problems in the way of proper application of computer and...

The National Computer Systems Laboratory (NCSL) and the National Computer Security Center (NCSC) of the Department of Defense co-sponsored the Eleventh National Computer Security Conference held in Baltimore, Maryland on October 17-20, 1988. More than 1600 attendees from government, industry, and academia participated in the four-day conference which provided a forum for the exchange of ideas a...

W e are in the midst of, or perhaps at the beginning of, the development of a new concept of computing and computers that will significantly affect OR/MS. This development is summarized in the phrase " the network is the computer. " The focus and use is not an individual computer and its resources but a network of computers and resources, indeed, a network of all computers. This concept is clos...
