BACKGROUND The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has supported implementation science for over a decade. We explore the application of implementation science across the cancer control continuum, including prevention, screening, treatment, and survivorship. METHODS We reviewed funding trends of implementation science grants funded by the NCI between 2000 and 2012. We assessed study characteristi...

in this paper the design and implementation of fault tolerable architecture for scientific workflow engines is presented. the engines are assumed to be implemented as composite web services. current architectures for workflow engines do not make any considerations for substituting faulty web services with correct ones at run time. the difficulty is to rollback the execution state of the workflo...

The purpose of this document is to summarize the theoretical results, implementation considerations, deployment details, and measurement results reached in the MINERVA project. During our theoretical work we identified a special case of network coding which is able to maintain scalability and simplicity, and through our implementation we showed that it is a viable approach in transport networks.

Choosing a multiprocessor interconnection topology may depend on high-level considerations, such as the intended application domain and the expected number of processors. It certainly depends on low-level implementation details, such as packaging and communications protocols. We first use rough measures of cost and performance to characterize several topologies. We then examine how implementati...

Reports of how different countries are responding to the need to develop more integrated health and social care services for older adults can provide useful lessons for other health systems. However an understanding of how the wider structural, political, economic and cultural context affects implementation of these models of care is essential when considering the potential for models to be sca...

Background The Eastern Quebec Telepathology Network (EQTN) has been implemented in the province of Quebec (Canada) to support pathology and surgery practices in hospitals that are lack of pathologists, especially in rural and remote areas. This network includes 22 hospitals and serves a population of 1.7 million inhabitants spread over a vast territory. An evaluation of this network was conduct...

When designing a mobile robotic team, researchers are faced with many design choices. This paper discusses the design and implementation of a heterogeneous team consisting of two types of robots with significantly different sensing and control capabilities intended to accomplish a similar task. Two new robotic platforms, the COTS Scout and the MegaScout are described along with their respective...
