A data driven semantic framework for clinical trial eligibility criteria
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-01-17)An important step in the discovery of new treatments for medical conditions is the matching of potential subjects with appropriate clinical trials. Eligibility criteria for clinical trials are typically specified in free ... -
Deformation mapping of fibronectin fibrils using digital image correlation
(University of Missouri Kansas City, 2012-01-09)Bone cells produce large amounts of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins that form a fibrillar scaffold on which bone mineral is deposited. Prior work has shown that fibronectin fibrils are one of the earliest ECM proteins ... -
Delay based approach to support low priority users in preemptive wireless networks
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-01-27)At times of serious disasters (natural or man-made), wireless networks are quickly congested due to the sheer volume and stress on network resources, and, preferential treatment is necessary for National Security/Emergency ... -
Design and validation of a digital core for wireless communication with RFID-enabled devices
(University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2011-12-15)A digital core was designed and successfully tested to communicate with RFID-enabled devices. This digital core comprises of a communication block and a control block. The communication block is made up of two blocks, ... -
Distributed querying of clinical documents modeled as HL7 version 3 standard
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-01-30)We present a software tool called Collaborative Data Network (CDN) for distributed querying of clinical documents modeled using HL7 v3 standard (e.g., Clinical Document Architecture). HL7 Version 3 standard was developed ... -
Experimental evaluation of intravascular flow meter and miniature RFID antennas using MEMS pressure sensors and flexible PCD techniques
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-01-17)A testbed for flow meters was built and validated. The testbed targeted intravascular pressure and flow monitoring applications. The testbed consists of a data acquisition system and two MEMS pressure sensors (SM5108). ... -
Multi-scale analysis of urban wetland changes using satellite remote sensing techniques
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-01-10)This study investigates urban wetland-cover changes in the Kansas City metropolitan area with analyses at various spatial and temporal scales. Not many studies fully addressed multi-scale urban wetland-cover dynamics in ...
