TL;DR: This design science research study describes the design and development of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)-based Healthcare Management System (RHMS) and shows that the Information System Design Theory used to develop the RHMS could form the basis for further research.
Abstract: This design science research study describes the design and development of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)-based Healthcare Management System (RHMS) for the healthcare industry. We examined the use of RFID technology as the key enabler for building the RHMS to deliver higher business values and provide effective support in transforming and optimizing healthcare practices in the industry. In this study, a prototype RHMS was built and implemented in a quasi-real world setting. The results validate the practical viability of the proposed system architecture. We show that the Information System Design Theory used to develop the RHMS could form the basis for further research. We hope the proposed system architecture and the developed prototype system from this study will help support and further the efforts of both academics and practitioners in RFID research.

TL;DR: Maplab as discussed by the authors is an open, research-oriented visual-inertial mapping framework for processing and manipulating multi-session maps, written in C++, which includes a collection of multisession mapping tools that include map merging, visual inertial batch optimization, and loop closure.
Abstract: Robust and accurate visual-inertial estimation is crucial to many of today's challenges in robotics. Being able to localize against a prior map and obtain accurate and driftfree pose estimates can push the applicability of such systems even further. Most of the currently available solutions, however, either focus on a single session use-case, lack localization capabilities or an end-to-end pipeline. We believe that only a complete system, combining state-of-the-art algorithms, scalable multi-session mapping tools, and a flexible user interface, can become an efficient research platform.
We therefore present maplab, an open, research-oriented visual-inertial mapping framework for processing and manipulating multi-session maps, written in C++. On the one hand, maplab can be seen as a ready-to-use visual-inertial mapping and localization system. On the other hand, maplab provides the research community with a collection of multisession mapping tools that include map merging, visual-inertial batch optimization, and loop closure. Furthermore, it includes an online frontend that can create visual-inertial maps and also track a global drift-free pose within a localization map. In this paper, we present the system architecture, five use-cases, and evaluations of the system on public datasets. The source code of maplab is freely available for the benefit of the robotics research community.

TL;DR: In this article, a method and process control data server system architecture for providing process data to a variety of client applications via a plurality of differing data sharing standards is described, and a ready platform for subsequently added client application data exchange protocols.
Abstract: A method and process control data server system architecture are disclosed for providing process data to a variety of client applications via a plurality of differing data sharing standards. The system architecture incorporates a ready platform for subsequently added client application data exchange protocols. In an exemplary embodiment, a set of standard interface definitions between client application data exchange protocol-specific plugins and a data access server engine supports incorporating new client application data exchange protocols by means of plugins designed to interface with the data access server engine according to the standard interface definitions.

TL;DR: An abbreviated view of the topics included in modern array architecture is presented in this article, where the broad subject of architecture includes all the electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical aspects that need to be addressed by the array design team.
Abstract: An abbreviated view of the topics included in modern array architecture is presented. The broad subject of architecture includes all the electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical aspects that need to be addressed by the array design team. The emphasis is on the interaction between the selection of an array aperture organization, corporate feeds, devices and elements, and a discussion of EHF monolithic array architecture is included as an example. >

TL;DR: This system uses embedded system, 3G, and ZIGBEE technologies to overcome the drawbacks of current smart home systems such as discrete functions, poor portability, weak updating capability, and personal computer dependence.
Abstract: With more and more applications of Internet of Things in many domains, it also steps into Smart Homes. In this paper, we propose an Internet of Things-based smart home system for home comfort, leisure and safety. This system uses embedded system, 3G, and ZIGBEE technologies to overcome the drawbacks of current smart home systems such as discrete functions, poor portability, weak updating capability, and personal computer dependence. Moreover, the system architecture is presented, and the design of its gateway is shown in detail from hardware to software.
