A software process model handbook for incorporating peoples capabilities
Offers the most advanced approach to date, empirically validated at software development organizations. This handbook adds a valuable contribution to the much-needed literature on people-related aspects in software engineering. The primary focus is on the particular challenge of extending software process definitions to more explicitly address people-related considerations. The capability concept is not present nor has it been considered in most software process models. The authors have developed a capabilities-oriented software process model, which has been formalized in UML and implemented as a tool. A Software Process Model Handbook for Incorporating People's Capabilities guides readers through the incorporation of the individual’s capabilities into the software process. Structured to meet the needs of research scientists and graduate-level students in computer science and engineering, A Software Process Model Handbook for Incorporating People's Capabilities is also suitable for practitioners in industry.

A healthcare professionals training system
The Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is a type of examination often used in health sciences. It is designed to test clinical skill performance and competence in a range of skills. It is a practical, real-world approach to learning and assessment. Comprises a circuit of short (5-10 minutes) stations, in which each candidate is examined on a one-to-one basis with one or two impartial examiner(s) and patients who are either real or simulated (actors or electronic patient simulators). Each station has a different examiner; in comparison, the traditional method of clinical examination is when a candidate is assigned to an examiner for the entire examination.

This Festschrift volume, published in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Artificial Intelligence, includes 34 refereed papers written by leading researchers in the field of Artificial Intelligence. The papers were carefully selected from the invited lectures given at the 50th Anniversary Summit of AI, held at the Centro Stefano Franscini, Monte Verità, Ascona, Switzerland, July 9-14, 2006. The summit provided a venue for discussions on a broad range of topics.
3D Segmentation for medical images (OsteoVision) = التقطيع ثلاثي الأبعاد للصور الطبية
With the increasing integration of AI across various sectors, artificial intelligence (AI) is already playing a significant role in the healthcare industry, and its use is expected to grow further. AI systems used in image processing and computer vision algorithms have shown a significant ability to perform many operations such as segmentation, classification, and detection. This project presents the application of computer vision algorithms in the field of medical imaging for diagnostic, therapeutic, and interventional purposes. This thesis explores the use of several computer vision algorithms to address different pathologies, specifically brain tumors (glioma) (see Appendix A) and knee osteoarthritis (OA), as well as tracking the progression of knee osteoarthritis using the Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) grading system, a common method for classifying the severity of OA into five grades. To achieve the desired impact, the project employs various techniques, including 3D segmentation for brain tumors, 2D segmentation for knee joints, and multinomial classification for determining the severity of knee OA injuries. The primary aims of the project are to enhance diagnostic accuracy, assist in creating treatment plans, provide an assistive tool for healthcare providers to make more informed decisions, leverage AI's capabilities to detect abnormalities that might escape the human eye, and streamline workflow. To facilitate these goals, the project incorporates a user-friendly UI, a website, and a Flutter-based mobile application, enabling healthcare providers to efficiently integrate these tools into their practice and improve patient care.
3D Imaging for Safety and Security
This book is so far the first that covers the current state of the art in 3D imaging for safety and security. Special attention was given to advanced 3D imaging technologies in the context of safety and security applications. Comparative evaluation studies showing advantages of 3D imaging over traditional 2D imaging for a given computer vision or pattern recognition task were emphasized. Moreover, additional experts in the field of 3D imaging for safety and security were invited by the editors for a contribution to this book.

The articles take a long-range view of the subject and distill the most important advances in broad terms, making them easily accessible to non-specialists. The first part is devoted to a summary of how relativity theories were born (J Stachel). The second part discusses the most dramatic ramifications of general relativity, such as black holes (P Chrusciel and R Price), space-time singularities (H Nicolai and A Rendall), gravitational waves (P Laguna and P Saulson), the large scale structure of the cosmos (T Padmanabhan); experimental status of this theory (C Will) as well as its practical application to the GPS system (N Ashby). The last part looks beyond Einstein and provides glimpses into what is in store for us in the 21st century.
.NET 2.0 Interoperability Recipes : A Problem-Solution Approach
.NET represents a new and improved way of developing software for the Windows platform. Given the chance, you'd probably rewrite all of your existing code in the newer managed code environment that .NET provides. But it is difficult or impossible to throw out all existing legacy code and start over when a new technology arrives. Instead, you need to find a way to move forward with new .NET development while reusing existing pieces of tested, working code. You need a way to interoperate with the existing code until you have a chance to finally rewrite all of it in .NET.
