Measuring a network path’s quality is important. The main task of network measuring is to probing some criteria of quality, e.g., the end-to-end delay between server and clients, the current traffic conditions of the network, etc. The obtained performance information could be used to enhance user experiences not only as a feedback to adjust user’s terminal device but also to help network operat...

JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages on the web. Despite the language popularity and the increasing size of JavaScript systems, there is currently a limited number of visualization tools that can be used by developers to comprehend, maintain, and evolve JavaScript software. In this paper, we introduce JSCity, an implementation in JavaScript of the well-known Code City sof...

This paper reviews the importance of childhood malnutrition in Papua New Guinea and other developing countries. Emphasis is given to two important causes: chronic disease and limited food supply. Definitions and diagnostic criteria for malnutrition are discussed with particular focus on the mid-upper-arm circumference (MUAC). The design of a MUAC measuring tape with written treatment guidelines...

The goal of this project is to make it easier to measure objects in day to day life. This is normally difficult to do because a ruler or tape measure is required, which is difficult to come by in many situations. Money Measure works by allowing you to use a smartphone camera to measure things. By taking a photo of an object next to a common US dollar bill, Money Measure can measure the distance...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the concordance of the Broselow tape with the measured heights and weights of a community-based population of children, especially in light of the increase in obesity in today's children. METHODS The authors examined more than 7,500 children in a cross-sectional, descriptive study in two different cohorts of children to compare their actua...

This paper is concerned with a new type of deployable structures that can be rolled up like a tape measure but, unlike a tape measure, are stable in two different configurations. The key to the behaviour of these structures is a particular type of composite construction based on an anti-symmetric lay-up of glass fibres in a polypropylene matrix. The paper presents a finite element analysis usin...

BACKGROUND The measurement of maximal head circumference is a standard procedure in the examination of childrens' cranial growth and brain development. The objective of the study was to evaluate the validity of maximal head circumference to cranial volume in the first year of life using a new method which includes ear-to-ear over the head distance and maximal cranial length measurement. METHO...
