Perceptions and Experiences of Online Learning and Synchronous Communication
… a new component of virtual presence (i.e., synchronous communication) at strategic points in the online learning process during a three-course clinical sequence in which the teacher participants engaged in field learning experiences. The study used a case study approach to investigate …

Podscanning : audio microcontent and synchronous communication for mobile devices
… the past decade, computationally powerful audio communication devices have become commonplace. Mobile devices have high storage capacity for digital audio, and smartphones or networked PDAs can be used to stream internet radio and download podcasts. However, applications that allow mobile devices …

A synchronous communication system for a software-based Byzantine fault tolerant computer
… that combines clock synchronization and communications between fault containment regions by inferring relative clock skew from the arrival time of expected messages. Both a failsafe and a fault-tolerant algorithm are discussed, though the fault-tolerant algorithm is not fully analyzed. …

Participating in Synchronous Online Education
… type of distance education. It mainly relies on asynchronous communication although it is well known that many students regard the lack of synchronous communication as disadvantageous. This thesis aims to achieve a deeper understanding of how, why and when synchronous communication, as a …

OS INSPIRED COMPLETE KERNEL FUSION
… Learning (DML) is increasingly recognized as a communication-bound workload, with most existing work aiming to alleviate this bottleneck through communication-computation overlap. However, current approaches—largely reliant on CPU-managed operator scheduling and synchronous communication …

An Extensible Component-Based Architecture for Web-Based Simulation Using Standards-Based Web Browsers
… also included the development of an asynchronous client-server communication protocol as opposed to traditional synchronous communication protocols used by Java WBS systems. The asynchronous protocol demonstrates similar or better execution performance than similar synchronous …

The Development of Romantic Relationships Through Computer-Mediated Communication: Synchronous Vs. Asynchronous Interaction
… that were initially developed through synchronous vs. asynchronous computer-mediated communication (CMC). Fifteen participants who were currently involved in romantic relationships that were initially developed via synchronous CMC participated in the study. Participants completed …

Supporting Spatial Collaboration: An Investigation of Viewpoint Constraint and Awareness Techniques
… Each phase of this research is limited to synchronous communication activities and non-professional users working together on everyday tasks. Our findings highlight the advantages and disadvantages of the different techniques for spatial collaboration solutions. Also, having conducted …

Telemedicine Quality Improvement Study
… (TM) is the modern-day spinoff of a telecommunication system that has roots back to the early 1900s. The creation of Voice Over IP (VoIP) and synchronous communication allows individuals at two or more locations to communicate live in real-time, this is the margin that we use to develop …

Using a Two-Factor Framework to Optimize Online Students’ Satisfaction While Minimizing Their Dissatisfaction
… achievement, course flexibility/convenience, asynchronous communication, and synchronous communication may be deemed as satisfiers (motivators), because they were more likely to increase online students’ satisfaction than to decrease their satisfaction. In contrast, online modality, assessment, …

Mediating ICU patient situation-awareness with visual and tactile notifications
… awareness by following task management and communication practices. They create and manipulate several paper-based and digital information sources, with the overall aim to constantly inform themselves and their colleagues of dynamically evolving patient conditions. However, when increased …

Functional programming abstractions for weakly consistent systems
… complexity of concurrent programming for an asynchronous distributed system. ^ This dissertation argues that functional programming language abstractions can simplify scalable concurrent programming for weakly consistent systems. Functional programming espouses mutation-free programming, and …

Agent-based open connectivity for decision support systems
… the difficulties in concurrency control and synchronous communication that plague many decentralised systems. Performance analysis has been carried out on this framework and we find that it is able to provide a high degree of flexibility and efficiency compared with other frameworks. The …
