Fog-aided network architectures for 5G systems encompass wireless edge nodes, referred to as remote radio systems (RRSs), as well as remote cloud center (RCC) processors, which are connected to the RRSs via a fronthaul access network. RRSs and RCC are operated via Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), enabling a flexible split of network functionalities that adapts to network parameters such ...

This paper classifies the movement of the RRSS spatial linkage in terms of its link dimensions. The constraint equation for this chain relates the rotation angles of the input crank and coupler around the two revolute joints. The condition for a real valued solution for the coupler angle as a function of the input angle yields a quartic polynomial. We use three polynomial discriminants obtained...

BackgroundThe recently developed deep learning (DL)-based early warning score (DEWS) has shown potential in predicting deteriorating patients. We aimed to validate DEWS multiple centres and compare the prediction, alarming timeliness performance with modified (MEWS) identify patients at risk for in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA).Method/research designThis retrospective cohort study included adu...

Studies of hospital performance highlight the problem of 'failure to rescue' in acutely ill patients. This is a deficiency strongly associated with serious adverse events, cardiac arrest, or death. Rapid response systems (RRSs) and their efferent arm, the medical emergency team (MET), provide early specialist critical care to patients affected by the 'MET syndrome': unequivocal physiological in...

Just over 50 years ago, Peter Safar and colleagues began work n preventing mortality from cardiac arrest using a combinaion of rescue breathing and chest compressions, now known s cardiorespiratory resuscitation (CPR).1 Since then, a range of mprovements and additional interventions, e.g., different comression:ventilation ratios, automated defibrillators, intravenous rugs and therapeutic hypoth...
