Novel PC-based cardiac stress test system is considered in this paper. The system consist of ECG signal acquisition module, which is connected to the PC over USB port, software application dedicated to stress testing, ergotest bicycle and treadmill. First, electronic circuits of signal acquisition module are described, and after, software features are presented.

dustry Day, which provided real-world experiences utilizing CBR in fielded applications. The second day featured four workshops on various CBR related topics: health sciences, textual case-based reasoning, computer gaming and simulation environments, and similarities—processes—workflows. Days 3 and 4 comprised presentations and posters on theoretical and applied CBR research, as well as invited...

This paper approaches computer games from three perspectives: First, by defining the properties common to all games. Second, by fitting computer games into Model–View–Controller architectural pattern and discerning common software components. Third, by listing features that players expect from an enjoyable computer game.

Body Sensor Networks (BSNs) are used for diverse applications ranging from monitoring for medical purposes, sport coaching to computer gaming. This leads to viewing the BSN as an application platform and requires the capability to dynamically extend and configure BSN applications, including reprogramming the sensor nodes of the BSN. We propose a trust management model along with a component-bas...

This paper describes Pocket Pavilion, a web-based application that extends collaborative browsing to wireless handheld computing platforms running Windows CE. Pocket Pavilion is built atop Pavilion, an object-oriented middleware framework for synchronous web-based applications. In order to accommodate several limitations of the Windows CE environment, Pocket Pavilion combines a small number of ...

The CBM readout controller board (ROC) was developed to control nXYTER-based [1] front-end electronics and deliver data from the nXYTER to a PC via Ethernet. A first version of PC software libraries (ROClib [2]) for communication with the ROC was implemented. Then a significant redesign of this software was required because new ROC firmware will support various kinds of front-end electronics an...
