TL;DR: This paper proposes a methodology based on the Axiomatic Design for the composition and selection of web services, which arebased on the case stories studied, built using semi-structured interviews to different stakeholders involved in the care process.
Abstract: in recent years remote patient monitoring systems, which are conceived to monitor patient and store the recorded data, employ Service Oriented Architectures (SOA). In health care systems, if on the one hand the SOA features allow enriching the offer of services to patients and their families, on the other hand the problem arises of selecting the most appropriate set of web services for homogeneous groups of users or for each individual clinical case. In this paper, we propose a methodology based on the Axiomatic Design for the composition and selection of web services, which are based on the case stories studied, built using semi-structured interviews to different stakeholders involved in the care process. The proposed methodology detects in a systematic way all functional requirements by taking into account the different stakeholders involved in the process and their interactions. Thus, it identifies the interested actors for a specific health protocol, and consider all information to be exchanged and the Web Services to be implemented. The development of this methodology opens interesting scenarios even in areas not currently affected by such systems, such as health and safety at work for monitoring patients with chronic illnesses or for their work reintegration following acute clinical events. A specific case study is considered in order to illustrate the proposed approach.

TL;DR: In this paper, a sliding element for use in a chain transmission apparatus, comprising a sliding contact section for engagement in sliding contact with a chain, was proposed, and the sliding element consisted of a plastic material comprising a matrix polymer and dispersed therein graphite platelets comprising platelet particles having a thickness of at most 250 nm.
Abstract: The invention relates to a sliding element for use in a chain transmission apparatus, comprising a sliding contact section for engagement in sliding contact with a chain, wherein the sliding contact section consists of a plastic material comprising a matrix polymer and dispersed therein graphite platelets comprising platelet particles having a thickness of at most 250 nm. The invention relates to an engine comprising a first sliding element in sliding contact with a second element, wherein at least a sliding contact section is made of such a plastic material comprising such thin graphite platelets. The invention further relates to a chain transmission apparatus, comprising a chain, and a sliding element comprising (i) a sliding contact section engaged in sliding contact with the chain and (ii) a main body reinforcing and supporting the sliding contact section, wherein the sliding contact section consists of such a plastic material.

TL;DR: Axiomatic design is studied under this framework, showing evidences that indicate it satisfies this set of properties, and design scenarios where the preliminary decision-making tool deteriorates the design process are found.
Abstract: This study presents a set of definitions and properties that characterize the Ideal Design Process and the resources consumed during this process. As an application of both characterizations, the impact of preliminary decision-making tools in the consumption of resources and its uncertainty is introduced, deriving the conditions that a preliminary decision-making tool needs to satisfy to improve the design process. It is assumed the design process improves when the best design is obtained with a lower consumption of resources (time and money) and with a lower uncertainty, both concepts related to the acquired complexity and the risk. Axiomatic design is studied under this framework, showing evidences that indicate it satisfies this set of properties. Design scenarios where the preliminary decision-making tool deteriorates the design process are also found.
