Aims : Chilean vegetation has previously received considerable attention, and several classifications are currently available. The most recent of these was presented for the first time in 2006 updated 2017 by authors. Although widely utilized researchers both Chile Latin America, this information is only available Spanish, which hampers its usefulness a broader scientific audience. Here, we pro...

BACKGROUND: Currently the Russian Federation Government has a strong focus to roads safety. This is due national project Safe High-Quality Roads. One of tools pedestrian safety in an urban are road bumps. They need for drivers speed slow.
 Contrarily world scientists create alternative sources electrical energy. It led type as technical electrogenerating devices.
 Whereas have big amo...

reapplied to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for deeming authority for accredited hospitals. In response to CMS’s winter 2014 and spring 2014 reviews of its application, The Joint Commission developed and revised several elements of performance (EPs) for hospitals and for rehabilitation and psychiatric distinct part units in critical access hospitals. The revisions, which are...

At present, there are many studies that collect information on aspects of neurologic and behavioral function (cognition, sensation, movement, emotion), but with little uniformity among the measures used to capture these constructs. Further, available measures are generally expensive, normed on homogenous nondiverse populations, not easily administered, do not cover the lifespan (or have easily ...

A field experiment investigated factors expected to influence yielding by motorists to a pedestrian waiting to cross a city street. One-hundred and sixty motorists passing through a marked crosswalk were participants. In addition, data were gathered on 120 baseline motorists who passed through the test intersection when a pedestrian was not present. A comparison of the age composition of the ex...

In the current information environment where various types of resources coexist with heterogeneous formats of metadata standards, efforts have been made to achieve metadata interoperability in order to utilize multiple metadata standards and to (re)use existing metadata records by developing strategies, ranging from simple element mapping to complex structural modeling. These efforts have gener...

The Empirical Bayesian (EB) Method, currently the industry standard for before-andafter collision analysis, was used to perform tests on the efficacy of high-visibility school (yellow, continental-style) crosswalks in the City of San Francisco. Statistical analysis compared the number of collisions predicted for the after period had the enhanced crosswalks not been installed to the number of co...

The HEAL10-NY grant, funded by the New York State Government, is an outcome of the state’s effort to integrate hospitals, clinics and laboratories in New York. This paper discusses the mapping strategies adopted for the semantic and process interoperability between two hospital systems that have been implemented at two different clinical settings using standard vocabularies. Allscripts EMR is b...

The Alexandria Digital Library (ADL) project has been working on automating the processes of building ADL collections and gathering the collection statistics on which ADL’s discovery system is based. As part of this effort, we have created a language and supporting programmatic framework for expressing mappings from XML metadata schemas to the required ADL metadata views. This language, based o...
