NOVEL COCAINE MEDICATIONS USING POSITRON EMISSION TOMOGR

Not Available Because processes are central to the operation of all aspects of an organization, most decision-making applications and implementation solutions deal with the capture, specification, representation, and manipulation of process-related information. This information may in turn be used to support business process re-engineering, workflow systems development, and a wide range of training needs. Since these application domains require the same process information, its collection for one application should easily support other purposes. Yet, sharing and reuse of process-related information across applications remains an unrealized vision. The need for standards to capture, represent, share, and display process-related information is particularly important in training applications. Process-centered training provides students with the most reliable approach for understanding, internalizing, and applying new concepts. The objective of this project is two-fold: (1) Define an XML/IDEF3 standard, providing a neutral format for capturing, organizing, and sharing process-related data based on the XML Internal formatting standard, and (2) Develop an advanced authorizing toolkit for situation-based, process-centric computer-based training using XML/IDEF3 data. The proposed developments will provide an unprecedented ability to share and manipulate process information across web-based training applications, as will be demonstrated through this and subsequent phases of this SBIR.
