radio frequency identification (rfid) is used to identify the characteristics of an object wirelessly using radio waves. the purpose of this technology in this study is mainly focused on healthcare for inventory management and theft control replacing the manual logs. the storage and tracking of high-cost inventory items is developed. automatic reordering and billing interfaces are designed for ...

We explore the possibility of using the genetic algorithm to optimize trading models based on the Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) machine learning technology. Technical indicators, derived from intraday tick data for the E-mini S&P 500 futures market (ES), were used as feature vectors to the HTM models. All models were configured as binary classifiers, using a simple buy-and-hold trading str...

abstract purpose of this paper: the objectives of this paper are two folds: (1) utilizing hierarchical fuzzy technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (topsis) approach to evaluate the most suitable rfid-based systems decision, and (2) to highlight key risks and benefits of radio frequency identification technology in healthcare industry. design/methodology/approach: resear...

When the Technical Services Partnership (TSP) at the University of Vermont (UVM) read the first edition of the AAMI HTM Levels Guide in 2014, the department found that it didn’t quite meet the criteria for an “advanced” health technology management (HTM) program. Reaching the top level— level 3, according to the guide—would require a majority of TSP’s technical staff to hold a professional cert...

First coined by members of the RFID community in 1990s, the concept of the ‘Internet of Things’ is emerging as an important lever for addressing key organisational and societal challenges including megacities management, environmental management, supply chain and healthcare management. At the core of the concept, RFID technology is expected to play a vital role in terms of business value creati...

We investigate how transactional memory can be adapted for embedded systems. We consider energy consumption and complexity to be driving concerns in the design of these systems and therefore adapt simple hardware transactional memory (HTM) schemes in our architectural design. We propose several different cache structures and contention management schemes to support HTM and evaluate them in term...

Following increases in national demands on healthcare facilities and services, healthcare facilities management (FM) has gradually matured to become an established research and development topic. This paper reviews the state of the art in the main domains related to healthcare FM and defines the central themes in the development of a healthcare FM model. FM, maintenance management and performan...
