Background information

Critical thinking is one of most highly valued educational outcomes in the professional education of healthcare professionals. Educationalists tend to emphasize the importance of teaching future healthcare professionals how to think, rather than the need to improve the contents of curricula. This view stems from the fact that the nursing process is highly concerned with problem-solving and decision-making-related activity that requires acquisition and continuous improvement of related skills (Yilldrim, Ozkahraman &Karabudak, 2011, p.174) As nursing education is directly related to critical thinking theory, tparticularly the development of these skills is essential for curricula in nursing educational instituions (Yilldrim&Ozkahraman, 2011, ...

- Insurance premium formula
Insurance premium is a sum of all costs of insurance company. One of the essential and the most valuable components is risk cost (money paid when insurance accident occurred).

INTRODUCTION

The protocols at the transport layer of the OSI reference model provides an end-to-end data delivery service for application processes to exchange messages over the Internet. Protocols operating in the Transport layer use the services of the Internet Protocol (IP) to deliver messages. Many protocols exist at his layer and one of the most important protocols at this layer is Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for the delivery of data between the Application Layer and the Internet Layer. The shortcoming of IP to guarantee the delivery of datagrams is overcome by TCP by setting up a virtual circuit between the communicating ...

Introduction

Healthcare involves the collaboration of various medical organizations, institutions, and providers, all of whom manage their own data under different storage and retrieval systems, and though practical and efficient within the target system, there is a lack of uniformity in structure across other systems (Masud et al. 2012). Moreover, there are often variations in data compiled from the same resources. This lack of synergy between the various data storage systems, and the types of information stored, preclude the sharing of data among the various healthcare professionals, institutions, and organizations. E-health systems, on the other hand, allow the storage and retrieval ...

Introduction

Tensile testing is usually conducted to select a material for its application, quality control, and to forecast how the material is likely to react on deployment of different types of forces. The properties evaluated through the tensile test include the ultimate tensile strength, the maximum elongation, X-area reduction and so forth. These evaluations facilitate determination of such properties as Young’s Modulus, yield strength, Poisson’s ratio, and the characteristics of strain hardening [1. 2]. Tensile testing on glass fibre is, thus, performed to determine the quality of the material it contains, and to ascertain its suitability for various applications.
