We present an Integrated Document and Workflow Management System (DMS/WMS) applied to the core business process "Customer-oriented Offer Processing" of a machine tool company. We emphasize the integrational aspect where the challenge is to integrate various types of electronic documents and formatted data, different existing and innovative application systems. Furthermore, it is necessary to fl...

This paper describes the development and use of a Web Map Service (WMS) interface to the ESA Multi-Mission Catalogue (MUIS). This interface is compatible with the OpenGIS Consortium (OGC) version 1.1.1 specification so that browse products can be returned as geocoded images in a well-know geographic projection. This will allow them to be displayed on a web browser and merged with other EO and G...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to demonstrate and evaluate the effective application of a computerized workflow management system (WMS) into sonography workflow in order to reduce patient exam waiting time, number of waiting patients, sonographer stress level, and to improve patient satisfaction. METHODS A computerized WMS was built with seamless integration of an automated patient sort...

Culture-independent studies to characterize skin microbiota are increasingly common, due in part to affordable and accessible sequencing and analysis platforms. Compared to culture-based techniques, DNA sequencing of the bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene or whole metagenome shotgun (WMS) sequencing provides more precise microbial community characterizations. Most widely used protocols wer...

We present a tunable diode laser spectrometer with a novel, rapid time multiplexed direct absorption- and wavelength modulation-spectroscopy operation mode. The new technique allows enhancing the precision and dynamic range of a tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer without sacrificing accuracy. The spectroscopic technique combines the benefits of absolute concentration measurements using...

BACKGROUND Wheelchair mobility skills (WMS) training is regarded by children using a manual wheelchair and their parents as an important factor to improve participation and daily physical activity. Currently, there is no outcome measure available for the evaluation of WMS in children. Several wheelchair mobility outcome measures have been developed for adults, but none of these have been valida...

Abstract Warburg Micro Syndrome (WMS) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by intellectual disability, bilateral congenital cataracts, microphthalmia, and brain anomalies. We report 18-week fetus presenting with cataract narrow cavum septum pellucidum. Patient was counselled about the possible etiologies ranging from infectious to chromosomal single gene etiologies. Invasive testing...

STUDY AIM To describe general movement in extremely premature infants and examine correlations with risk factors for antenatal, perinatal, and postnatal morbidity. STUDY TYPE Prospective, single-center study. Nineteen patients were followed up. METHODOLOGY The infants' general movement was analyzed using video recordings. Qualitative and quantitative assessments were performed during the wr...

BACKGROUND Williams syndrome (WMS) is a rare neurogenetic condition with a behavioral phenotype that suggests a dorsal and/or ventral developmental dissociation, with deficits in dorsal but not the ventral hemispheric visual stream. A shortened extent of the dorsal central sulcus has been observed in autopsy specimens. OBJECTIVE To compare gross anatomical features between the dorsal and vent...

When unexpected changes occur in a visual scene, people often fail to notice them. Because change detection depends on attentional mechanisms, people tend to notice changes that are of special significance. People with Williams syndrome (WMS) have an unusually strong interest in other people that is manifest in relatively spared face recognition skills, heightened social attention and hypersoci...
