Tele-Immersive applications possess an unusually broad range of networking requirements. As high-speed and Quality of Service-enabled networks emerge, it will becoming more difficult for developers of Tele-Immersion applications, and networked applications in general, to take advantage of these enhanced services. This paper proposes an adaptive networking framework to ultimately allow applicati...

The need for tele-education is rapidly growing. This paper describes a tele-educational environment and reports on experiences obtained during international trials. The tele-educational environment is build around the metaphor of a college. The virtual college offers the opportunity for students to participate in desktop tele-education from their homes or offices. The environment is based on In...

The Symposium will include a working seminar on Tele-AAC: AAC Meets Telerehabilitation: Envisioning Transformative Tele-AAC Research. This seminar is geared toward researchers, clinicians, educators and students who are interested in acquiring current information about telerehabilitation (telepractice) so that they might engage in and/or become knowledgeable consumers of Tele-AAC Research and i...

OBJECTIVE To measure teamwork and safety climate in three intensive care units (ICUs) before and after remote monitoring by intensivists using telemedicine technology (tele-ICU). DESIGN Controlled pre tele-ICU and post tele-ICU cross-sectional survey. SETTING ICUs in two non-teaching community hospitals and one tertiary care teaching hospital. Subjects ICU physicians and nurses. INTERVENT...

This paper examines a number of key areas of current research in tele-operated robotics that could have a significant impact on future directions and applications. Although accurate prediction is notoriously difficult the paper will aim to ground its conclusions through reference to current research literature. Following a generic description of the key elements in tele-robotic systems, the pap...

This paper presents a new computer supported remote learning and gaming method using Tele-Face Mouse system. The Tele-Face Mouse system is being developed as a teleconference system. It converts simple desktop computers to a teleconference system. The main advantage of the Tele-Face Mouse system is that it enables people to share a computer screen as a working space, and to interact with it usi...

Tele-robotics is an area of robotics concerned with the control of robots from a distance, chiefly using wireless connections like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, the Deep Space Network, ‘tethered’ connections, or the Internet. Most tele-robotic systems are teleoperated which means that it relies on the human operator’s capabilities. Many aspects like limited perception, cognitive workload, mental capacity, ...

The Tele-Medicine sub-services backed up by a novel, open-architecture Tele-Working platform, are evaluated. This multimedia platform, developed over the Hellenic Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), is based on user terminals (personal computers), networking apparatus, and a central database. The developed product equips the Hellenic PTT Organization (OTE) with a ready-to-be applied nov...
