The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has proposed the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) as a key element in the nextgeneration network (NGN) converged architecture supporting multimedia services. Extending the IMS towards provisioning support for location based services (LBS) will enable enhanced services and offer new revenues to the system. However, conveying location information in the ...

Much of construction work is project-based, short-term and task-oriented; promoting a culture of continuous learning is inhibited. Very often, specialist and technical knowledge is not shared laterally, neither between fellow site personnel nor organisations. This is especially so for tacit knowledge, which site managers gain and use in solving their complex day-to-day problems. A research on k...

To study the changes of water and vegetation coverage, groundwater level plant diversity lakes at end Tarim River in Northwest China, various indicators more than 20 years (2000–2019) were analyzed through field investigation indoor remote sensing methods. The results showed that (1): with initiation development ecological conveyance project, areas increased significantly, especially trend beco...

BACKGROUND Achieving knowledge translation in healthcare is growing in importance but methods to capture impact of research are not well developed. We present an attempt to capture impact of a programme of research in prehospital emergency care, aiming to inform the development of EMS models of care that avoid, when appropriate, conveyance of patients to hospital for immediate care. METHODS W...

We found that the most suitable flooding disturbance model for regenerating Populus euphratica forest was two to three times per year with a duration of 15-20 days and an intensity of 25-30 m(3)/s. The flooding should take place during the seed emergence to young tree growth stages, and should be based on flooding experiments and data from vegetation quadrats and ecological water conveyance. Fu...
