Heart Murmur Computerized ID.
A computer and an electronic stethoscope accurately distinguished between 37 abnormal heart murmurs and 32 innocent heart murmurs in a study by Dr. Curt G. DeGroff of the Children's Hospital, Denver, and his associates. The computer program used artificial neural network software designed to recognize the differences between normal...

Accessing applications from multiple file servers in a computer network.
Abstract: This study proposes a technique of accessing applications from multiple file servers in a computer network that caters for a large user community. The technique is a step towards creating a computer network system that is simple to implement, scalable, easy to manage, transparent to the user and...

An algorithm for dynamic reconfiguration of mobile agents.
Abstract In this paper we show an algorithm for dynamic reconfiguration of distributed applications based on the mobile agent model. We also show that the proposed algorithm can be easily implemented in the IPL language, a language with several abstractions for the construction of mobile applications in...
