Video conferencing is used increasingly in many telemedicine applications, including medical personnel education, peer consultation, patient education, and direct patient care. Advances in technology and changes in medical care delivery have enhanced the ability to develop effective telemedicine video conferencing systems. Measures of effectiveness for technology systems rely on identified requ...

A computer based Virtual Learning Environment is proposed for training and evaluating novice surgeons. Although this Virtual Learning Environments is thought to be useful in other learning situations as well, especially where knowledge of different complex procedures and the ability to correctly assess a complex situation is critical, in this project we specifically focus on vascular surgery. T...

The goal of this project is to develop methods to demonstrate how the three-dimensional world appears to people who have different types of aberrations. The input information is the subject's wavefront aberration measurements and a scene where the locations and depth of all objects are known. The first step of our approach is to replace the continuous depth map with a discrete map sampled at ap...

Computers have become incredibly smaller, cheaper and numerous since the last decade. Interconnecting them, results in a computer network. We say that two computers are interconnected if they can exchange information. Two computers are said to be autonomous, if one does not control the other. A computer network is an interconnected collection of autonomous computers. Connection of two or more d...
