Programming Interface

The paper examines the necessity and possibility of interface interaction of the information modeling program Revit Autodesk with the common office program MS Excel. Such interaction makes it easier to prepare project documentation in accordance with the requirements of Russian standards, GOST. An analysis of the capabilities of the built-in Revit tools for creating specifications and their design according to GOST requirements showed an insufficient level of automation of these processes. Ready-made foreign and Russian solutions in the field of Revit plugins that implement interaction with Excel have a number of disadvantages. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the capabilities of the application programming interface (API) for creating applications using the example of a developed software solution for automating the unloading of information from a BIM model into an Excel electronic document, in order to bring data presentation standards in line with GOST requirements. The application is developed using a tool environment: the C# programming language, the MS Visual Studio development environment, the WPF user interface creation tool, the Revit-side application programming interface .Net API, an interface for interacting with Excel ClosedXML files. As a result, the interface of the developed plugin is presented. The program allows you to export documents-statements and specifications - to Excel, designed according to the requirements of GOST. The user-friendly tab-based user interface, the compliance of the program design with the Revit system and the implemented functionality give the program advantages over its analogues. The application is available for free download to any Revit user, which is of practical importance.

Disrupting events are common in construction and can have a significant impact on the successful completion of a project. Disputes concerning disruptive events often arise because no party wants to accept responsibility for the extra cost incurred. The resolution of this kind of disputes lies within the clear demonstration of causation, liability and the quantification of the disrupting event. Purpose of this research is to explore the potential of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in assisting forensic delay and disruption analysis supported by a Graphical User Interface (GUI). An extensive literature review highlighted the shortcomings of current practices and identified the reconstruction of events through incomplete and unstructured documentation as one of the primary challenges faced by the analysis expert. The findings of the literature review formed the basis for the development of a GUI designed to incorporate all the necessary information for the identification of the causal link of events, the liability and the calculation of damages. The usability of the GUI prototype was tested on a case study, indicating an increase in the overall efficiency and reduction of time spent by the forensic analyst in the retrieval of relevant information.

Electron Microscopes

Remote on-line electron microscopy is rapidly becoming more available as improvements continue to be developed in the software and hardware of interfaces and networks. Scanning electron microscopes have been driven remotely across both wide and local area networks. Initial implementations with transmission electron microscopes have targeted unique facilities like an advanced analytical electron microscope, a biological 3-D IVEM and a HVEM capable of in situ materials science applications. As implementations of on-line transmission electron microscopy become more widespread, it is essential that suitable standards be developed and followed. Two such standards have been proposed for a high-level protocol language for on-line access, and we have proposed a rational graphical user interface. The user interface we present here is based on experience gained with a full-function materials science application providing users of the National Center for Electron Microscopy with remote on-line access to a 1.5MeV Kratos EM-1500 in situ high-voltage transmission electron microscope via existing wide area networks. We have developed and implemented, and are continuing to refine, a set of tools, protocols, and interfaces to run the Kratos EM-1500 on-line for collaborative research. Computer tools for capturing and manipulating real-time video signals are integrated into a standardized user interface that may be used for remote access to any transmission electron microscope equipped with a suitable control computer.

Structured Representation

Abstract:Currently, there is no widely accepted structured representation of drug prescription. Nevertheless, a structured representation is required for entering and storing drug prescriptions avoiding free text in computerized systems, and for drug prescription reviews. Derived from part of the work of the European OPADE project, we describe an object-oriented model of drug prescription which incorporates important concepts such as the phase and triggering event concepts. This model can be used to record all drug prescriptions, including infusions, in a structured way avoiding free text. The phase concept allows the storage of sequentially ordered dosage regimens for a drug within the same prescription. The prescription triggering event concept allows recording of the administration of a drug conditional to dates, symptoms and clinical signs, medical procedures, and everyday life events. This model has been implemented within the OPADE project; the corresponding aspects of the user interface are presented to show how this model can be used in practice. Even if other new attributes may be added to the described objects, the structure of this model is suitable for general use in software which requires the entry, storage and processing of drug prescriptions.
