high blood pressure has become increasingly commonbetween people and also it takes a major risk factor for many diseases. the present study is done toperformthe collaborative care model in patients with high blood pressure. hypertension is defined as: systolic blood pressure (sbp) ≥140 mmhg or diastolic blood pressure (dbp) ≥90 mmhg .a collaborative care model is a native educating method based...

In this paper, we propose an end-to-end group-wise deep co-saliency detection approach to address the co-salient object discovery problem based on the fully convolutional network (FCN) with group input and group output. The proposed approach captures the group-wise interaction information for group images by learning a semantics-aware image representation based on a convolutional neural network...

Collaborative communication produces high power gain and significantly mitigates the fading if both frequency and phase synchronization are achieved. In this paper, a novel collaborative communication system with imperfect phase synchronization that includes the influence of noise and Rayleigh fading is proposed, modelled, theoretically analyzed and simulated. Mathematical expressions for both ...

Rapid robotic system development sets a demand for multi-disciplinary methods and tools to explore and compare design alternatives. In this paper, we present collaborative modelling that combines discrete-event models of controller software with continuous-time models of physical robot components. The presented co-modelling method utilized VDM for discrete-event and 20-sim for continuous-time m...

We present the newly emerging research field of Computer Supported Collaborative Sports (CSCS). By applying innovative input and output technologies, it enables players to experience sportive activities in a shared computerized environment. Important dimensions in the design space of CSCS applications are discussed. Finally we present the FlyGuy, a prototypical realization of a CSCS device.

In this paper, we demonstrate a method of using the ICENI Grid middleware as a mechanism for deploying fully extensible collaborative visualisation environments. Various collaboration scenarios can be composed according to session requirements by means of a component-based Grid system, which includes display capabilities, steering capabilities and the ability for graphic output streaming over t...

In this paper, we proposed a new low overhead collaborative technique of output quality monitoring for approximate computing on GPUs. In this technique, the CPU is responsible for performing quality monitoring while the GPU executes approximate kernels. For two image processing applications, we showed that this technique outperforms previous quality monitoring techniques.

This article describes a collaborative learning experience in experimental design that closely approximates what practicing statisticians and researchers in applied science experience during consulting. Statistics majors worked with a teaching assistant from the chemistry department to conduct a series of experiments characterizing the variation in measured voltage output of Smestad and Grätzel...

Abstract The present study attempted to investigate the impact of cooperation versus collaboration on college students` reading ability. To fulfill the purpose of the study, 90 participants were chosen from among 140 by means of administering the Nelson Proficiency Test. They were divided into three groups: cooperative group, collaborative group, and control group. A fifty-item multiple-choice ...
