Part 2 of Tutorial on Web Technologies and applications to HPCC and HealthCare Given by David Warner,Geoffrey Fox at Supercomputing 96 on 18 November 96 . The focus of this course will be on the design of intelligent web-based interface systems.
Web technologies provide a unique opportunity to rapidly develop human computer interface systems.
Such systems provide a rich medium for augmented human expression thus enriching human-human communication and improving Quality of Life. A prototype system developed for Health Care will be discussed in the context of Telemedicine and Distributed Medical Intelligence. A Web based Expressional interface system being developed to enable disabled persons to fluently express themselves. A free Web service for disabled Web users.
