Adaptive radiotherapy is a technique intended to increase the accuracy of radiotherapy. Currently, it is not clinically feasible due to the time required to process the images of patient anatomy. Hardware acceleration of image processing algorithms may allow them to be carried out in a clinically acceptable timeframe. This paper presents the experiences encountered using high-level synthesis tools...
The Local Asset Mapping Project (LAMP) aims to develop new models of tertiary healthcare delivery by integrating patient care into a hospital's surrounding community. Current models are unsustainable, in particular due to the ageing demographic shift. To date, LAMP has created a database of almost 3,400 ‘assets’ from part (22km2) of the ambulance catchment of the largest acute hospital in Ireland...
Service-oriented system quality is not just a function of the quality of a provided service, but the interdependencies between services, the resource constraints of the runtime environment and network outages. This makes it difficult to anticipate how the consequences of these factors might influence system behaviour, which in turn makes it difficult to specify the right system environment in advance...
This paper describes the development and application of a new unique tool to support designers to optimise the sustainability of urban neighbourhoods (SUNtool). In this the paper introduces (i) the software architecture, (ii) the integrated solver and related innovations in the modelling of radiation exchange, reduced thermal modelling, stochastic modelling of occupant presence and behaviour, and...
