Cost-Effective eHealth System Based on a Multi-Sensor System-on-Chip Platform and Data Fusion in Cloud for Sport Activity Monitoring

2018

eHealth systems provide medical support to users and contribute to the development of mobile and quality health care. They also provide results on the prevention and follow-up of diseases by monitoring health-status indicators and methodical data gathering in patients. Telematic management of health services by means of the Internet of Things provides immediate support and it is cheaper than conventional physical presence methods. Currently, wireless communications and sensor networks allow a person or group to be monitored remotely. The aim of this paper is to develop and assess a system for monitoring physiological parameters to be applied in different scenarios, such as health or sports.…

Uso de Software-Defined Radio en la enseñanza de sistemas de comunicaciones

2017

[ES] En la docencia de sistemas de comunicación hay una componente teórica elevada. La percepción de los estudiantes al estudiar estas asignaturas es negativa. Este trabajo trata de explicar la motivación y la estrategia seguida para reorientar esta percepción a partir de la introducción de elementos de “Software-Defined Radio” (SDR) y “Universal Software Radio Peripherals” (USRP) en diferentes asignaturas del Grado de Ingenier´ıa Telem´atica de la Universitat de València

The Studio: Reflections and Issues Arising

1999

An advanced Telematic Studio was built at the University of Jyvaskyla to combine the latest technologies for local and distributed work and/or meetings. The objectives were to combine leading edge technologies with ethnographic design principles derived from CSCW and HCI to support a broad range of activities. We informed the design by studies of similar facilities on other sites. The Studio is popular, and it is easy to give glowing accounts of its use. Nevertheless, over three years a significant number of problems have arisen with both technologies and uses. Some of these are local. Others may be generalisable to any ‘cooperative building’. For example: problems with videoconferencing; i…

Multivariate statistical technique over QoS variables to analyze video quality metrics on IEEE 802.11ac networks

2017

[EN] We present the results from a measurementbasedperformance evaluation of wireless networks basedon IEEE 802.11ac standard in an indoor environment, withthe aim to analyze their performance under high definitionstreaming video applications. We focus our study on analyzingthe highest performance of these standards using off-theshelfequipment as well as the behavior of Quality of Servicevariables and how they affect to the video quality. Thus, wehave analyzed and measured these variables and have applieda multivariate statistical technique, called Factor Analysis,and finally discuss their behavior.

Efficiency of Telematics Systems in Management of Operational Activities in Road Transport Enterprises

2020

Implemented in road transport enterprises (RTEs) on a large scale, telematics systems are dedicated both to the particular aspects of their operation and to the integrated fields of the total operational functioning of such entities. Hence, a research problem can be defined as the identification of their efficiency levels in the context of operational activities undertaken by RTEs (including more holistic effects, e.g., lowering fuel/energy consumption and negative environmental impacts). Current research studies refer to the efficiency of some particular modules, but there have not been any publications focused on describing the efficiency of telematics systems in a more integrated (holist…

Evaluation of a Computer Vision Based Automatic Incident and Congestion Detection System in an Urban Context

1994

Abstract The objective of the document is to describe an Automatic Incident and Congestions Detection System based on computer vision technology, in an urban environment. The document outlines the main technical features of the system and presents the first evaluation results obtained in a field trial currently carried out in protect INVAII) II. within the Transport Telematics Programme of the EC. CCTV cameras are installed in urban street intersections lor surveillance purposes. Based on image processing techniques. the Video Analyzers or Local Sensor Modules (LSM) connected to a number of selected cameras, obtain the traffic status measurements within the field of view of each one of them…

Avaluació continua con Goodle-GMS a més de 800 alumnes en Enginyeria Química.

2014

L'objectiu d'aquesta experiència ha estat la d'establir un sistema d'avaluació contínua en assignatures amb gran quantitat d'alumnes de manera que no suposin un excessiu treball per al docent, que permeti generar una retroalimentació als alumnes ràpida, de manera que estimuli el treball dels estudiants. L'experiència ha estat realitzada simultàniament a 859 alumnes matriculats de l'assignatura "Química", corresponent a 1r dels Graus d'Enginyeria de l'Energia (85), Enginyeria Aeroespacial (137), Enginyeria de les Tecnologies Industrials (459) i Enginyeria Química (141), durant el segon quadrimestre a l'Escola Tècnica Superior d'Enginyeria de la Universitat de Sevilla. S'han plantejat 5 probl…

Graphical information models as interfaces for Web document repositories

2000

In interorganisational processes, documents are used to record information created during the processes. Legislative processes involving several legislative organisations, or manufacturing processes involving complicated networks of companies and officials are examples of such processes. In the contemporary computerised environments a great deal of the recorded information is scattered in different kinds of Web repositories with different kinds of interfaces. The repositories should serve as valuable knowledge assets but their use may be difficult and even the knowledge about the kinds of repositories available may be insufficient. The paper presents a method for improving information manag…

One-step diagnosis strategy together with multidisciplinary telematics referral perform an effective approach for identifying and treating patients w…

2021

Abstract Introduction and objectives Implementation of a one-step strategy for diagnosis of active Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection would encourage the early diagnosis and reduce the time to access antiviral treatments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of a HCV one-step diagnosis compared to the traditional two-step protocol in terms of the time required for patients to be seen by specialists and the time taken to start antiviral treatment. Material and methods A comparative study was carried out to assess two diagnostic algorithms (one-step and two-step) for active HCV infection. Serological markers were quantified using the same serum sample to determine both anti-HCV ant…
