Most studies are concerned with the technological implementation of data collections and devote little resources to potential users.
The drop in efficiency and reduced speedup when running more than nine threads in parallel might be related to the computer's hardware architecture or Scala's implementation of parallel collections but we did no further investigations along those lines.
Through previous collaborations with various clinical research groups, our Center for Biostatistics and Advanced Informatics CBAII) staff has over 40 years collective experience in the design, development, validation and implementation of data collection forms that are consistent with protocol, reporting and various sponsor requirements.
The interest on anaerobic digestion (AD) of biowaste is increasing because of the successful implementation of separate collection of the fractions of municipal solid waste.
In 1995, the German Federal Ministry of Health assembled a research group and assigned it to review, assess and prepare the implementation of data collection and to evaluate medical procedures and technologies in Germany [3].
In this sense, Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) of machines, is indicated as a promising application of Smart Manufacturing in the CPS context, demanding the standardization of concepts, terms, and a formal implementation of data collection and treatment.
This paper recognises Microsoft's Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) as a key potential technology in the area of service engineering and examines a structured approach to enhance it for the handling of continuous media streams through the design and implementation of a collection of suitable multimedia support services.
