Abstract Simulations are beneficial in evaluating clinicians’ empirical competencies through practical skills, prioritizing, and decision-making as part of patient care scenarios generally run a full-scale physical context. However, such simulations require space, manufacturing, replacement damaged or used equipment. On the other hand, virtual reality (VR) computerized simulators comparatively ...

One of the activities of the ACTS project EXPERT is to perform trials demonstrating the use of advanced Resource Management and Routing (RM&R) algorithms in ATM networks. The RM&R model chosen for those trials is based on the Virtual Trunk (VT) concept. In ATM networks, a VT is a virtual path connection setup by the network for reducing connection awareness at the transit nodes. A virtual trunk...

This research examined the training effectiveness of utilizing a virtual world simulation within an operationally relevant task domain and environment. Virtual world simulation-based training is becoming more common for military training due to recent simulation technological advancements. However, there remains a paucity of research examining this class of simulation's training effectiveness. ...
