Hybrid hospitals offer on-site and remote hospitalization through telemedicine. These new healthcare models require novel operational policies to balance costs, efficiency, and patient well-being. Our study addresses two first-order…

It is widely recognised that collaboration can help fast-track the development of countries in Africa. Leveraging on the fourth industrial revolution, Africa can achieve accelerated development in health care services, educational systems…

This paper regards coordination of networked systems, which is studied in the framework of hybrid dynamical systems. We design a coordination scheme which combines the use of ternary controllers with a self-triggered communication policy.…

Grid computing (GC) systems are large-scale virtual machines, built upon a massive pool of resources (processing time, storage, software) that often span multiple distributed domains. Concurrent users interact with the grid by adding new…

In multicenter biomedical research, integrating data from multiple decentralized sites provides more robust and generalizable findings due to its larger sample size and the ability to account for the between-site heterogeneity. However,…

We consider an unsourced random access (URA) system enhanced with a feedback mechanism that serves both communication and sensing tasks. While traditional URA systems do not incorporate feedback, we propose a novel feedback signal design…

Methods for distributed optimization have received significant attention in recent years owing to their wide applicability in various domains. A distributed optimization method typically consists of two key components: communication and…

The availability of powerful microprocessors and high-speed networks as commodity components has enabled high performance computing on distributed systems (wide-area cluster computing). In this environment, as the resources are usually…

We introduce the concept of self-healing in the field of complex networks. Obvious applications range from infrastructural to technological networks. By exploiting the presence of redundant links in recovering the connectivity of the…

The crustal architecture of southern Ghana remains inadequately resolved despite its tectonic significance and resource potential. Existing geological and geophysical studies provide only broad constraints on crustal composition, lacking…

Appointment scheduling systems are utilized mainly by specialty care clinics to manage access to service providers as well as by hospitals to schedule patient appointments. When attending hospitals in Tanzania, patients experience…

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have many potential medical imaging applications. Due to the limited memory of Graphical Processing Units (GPUs), most current 3D GAN models are trained on low-resolution medical images, these models…

Telemedicine services are very relevant tools to train local physicians and to improve diagnosis by exchanging medical data. Telemedicine networks allow these exchanges but the set-up of multipoint dynamic telemedicine requires moving…

This paper proposes a distributed design method of controllers having a glocal (global/local) information structure for large-scale network systems. Distributed design, independent design of all subcontrollers that constitute a structured…

Mobile phones have proven to be the best way of providing reliable access to information to people in low and mid income countries where other forms of communication perform poorly. As a result of the wide spread of mobile phones, there has…

Inefficient healthcare is a major concern among many African nations and can be mitigated by building world-class infrastructure connecting different medical facilities for collaboration and resource sharing. Such infrastructure should…

Augmented Reality (AR) systems describe the class of systems that use computers to overlay virtual information on the real world. AR environments allow the development of promising tools in several application domains. In medical training…

Globally, disparities in healthcare infrastructure remain stark, leaving countless communities without access to even basic services. Traditional infrastructure planning is often slow and inaccessible, and although many architects are…

Networking of microgrids can provide the operational flexibility needed for the increasing number of DERs deployed at the distribution level and supporting end-use demand when there is loss of the bulk power system. But, networked…

Currently, many countries are facing the problems of aging population, serious imbalance of medical resources supply and demand, as well as uneven geographical distribution, resulting in a huge demand for remote e-health. Particularly, with…
