Abstract:
Background: In our country a major cause of perinatal mortality and morbidity is meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) in new-born. The aim of this study is to assess feto-maternal outcome following intrapartum amnioinfusion in patients with meconium stained amniotic fluid and the rate of ceaserean deliveries following intrapartum amnioinfusion in patients with meconium stained amniotic fluid.Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted on 252 patients with pregnancy at or beyond 37 weeks in active labour with moderate to thick meconium stained amniotic fluid following spontaneous rupture or ARM. In such cases amnioinfusion was performed. Continuous electronic FHR monitoring was performed. Emergency LSCS was done when fetal Bradycardia was recorded or in case of non-progress of labor. Fetomaternal outcome will be noted.Results: In present study most, women had normal vaginal delivery 157 (62.30%) followed by LSCS 93 (36.91%) followed by forceps/vaccum delivery 02 (0.07%). No maternal complication was seen in 230 women (91.26%). Accidenatal hemorrhage was seen in 01 (0.39%) which was managed by emergency LSCS. Out of 252 neonates, 183 asymptomatic neonates at birth, 69 needed resuscitation and in which 52 neonates recovered and shifted back to mother and 17 neonates referred and admitted in NICU for MAS in which 07 were recovered and 10 neonates (3.96%) died due to MAS.Conclusions: Intrapartum amnio infusion in meconium stained amniotic fluid by diluting the meconium and by decreasing the cord compression decreases the incidence of foetal distress and there by decreases the rate of caesarean section, these all leads to decrease the incidence of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality.

Abstract:
Risk of COVID-19 in pregnant woman is the same as that in the general population but as pregnancy is a state of immunosuppression along with other physiological respiratory and immune changes. A pregnant woman might show more severe symptoms of COVID-19 infection. Health care employees should be permitted to meet pregnant women through managed home visits and with help of teleconsultations. Mothers should follow meticulous hand hygiene, respiratory etiquettes and social distancing because they have key role in restricting spread of infection. Protein rich diet, vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, calcium, iron and folic acid are very necessary components to be consumed by antenatal woman. It may help to protect mother and baby by having certain vaccines during pregnancy such as the influenza, tetanus and Tdap vaccines. Pregnant women with major risk of exposure/COVID-19 symptoms and no emergency obstetric issues should be stated for testing outside the hospital. Pregnant women without urgent obstetric issues awaiting results should stay at home to self-isolate. Those with emergency obstetric issues should be managed in labour room devoted to COVID-19 patients. Mode of delivery depends upon obstetrical indication and health condition of mother. Regular assessment of respiratory condition should be done during labour along with continuous electronic foetal monitoring. The WHO encourage mothers with COVID-19 to hold and breastfeed their babies because close connection is essential for new-born but to reduce risk of transmission temporary separation of new born from mother with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 is considered strongly.

Abstract:
Background: In our country a major cause of perinatal mortality and morbidity is MAS (MAS) in new-born. The aim of the study was to assess feto-maternal outcome following intrapartum amnioinfusion in patients with meconium-stained amniotic fluid and Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission following intrapartum amnioinfusion in patients with meconium stained amniotic fluid.Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted on 200 patients with pregnancy at or beyond 37 weeks in active labour with moderate to thick meconium stained liqour following spontaneous rupture or Artificial rupture of membranes (ARM). In 100 patients amnioin fusion was performed and rest 100 were in control group. Continuous electronic fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring was performed. Emergency lower segment caesarean section (LSCS) was done when fetal bradycardia was recorded or in case of non-progress of labor. Fetomaternal outcome will be noted.Results: In present study there were more cases of fetal distress in the control group (38) compared with the amnioinfusion group (24). 34 patients in the amnioinfusion group and 38 patients in the control group were delivered by LSCS. The incidence of MAS in amnioinfusion group was 3 in number where as 14 in number of control group. Similarly, in our study 13 neonates of amnioinfusion group and 31 neonates of control group were needed admission in NICU.Conclusions: Intrapartum amnioinfusion in meconium-stained amniotic fluid by diluting the meconium and by decreasing the cord compression decreases the incidence of foetal distress and there by decreases incidence of MAS in neonates and NICU admission, these all leads to decrease the incidence of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality.

Abstract:
Background: Caesarean sections are effective in saving maternal and infant lives, but only when they are performed for medically indicated reasons, The Objective of this study was to reduce caesarean Section rate at GMCH, Aurangabad and to improve overall birthing experience with respectful maternity care.Methods: The caesarean sections done at GMCH Aurangabad were audited using Robson`s Ten Group classification system to identify the major contributors to the overall CS rate. The following clinical and non-clinical interventions were applied dynamically to control the caesarean section rates. Clinical Interventions were changes in protocols regarding induction of labour, Intermittent auscultation as opposed to continuous electronic foetal monitoring in low risk cases, use of a partogram, encouragement of different birthing positions, promoting TOLAC to reduce the secondary CS rate. Nonclinical interventions include encouragement of DOULA (birth companion), ante-natal counselling of the expectant mothers, training of healthcare staff for respectful maternity care and use of evidence based clinical practice guidelines with mandatory second opinion for every non recurrent indication of CS. Auditing of caesarean section using Robson classification.Results: In this study there has been steady decline in LSCS rates from 33% to 26.9%. On analysis with Robson classification, group 5 (previous LSCS) made largest contribution of 36.9% followed by Group 1, 2, 10 each contributed 18.01%,13.2% and 11.2% respectively. Group 6 to 10 account for 23%. Various birthing positions lowered use of oxytocics from 33 % to 19% as well lowered episiotomy rates with greater success in vaginal delivery.Conclusions: Modification of induction protocols have reduced the primary LSCS rates and successful VBAC using FLAMM score was helpful in reducing the repeat caesarean Sections. Various birthing positions, DOULA gave greater success in vaginal delivery. LSCS rates in mothers with breech, multiple or oblique/transverse lies were largely unmodifiable. Limiting the CS rate in low-risk pregnancies by individualizing every labour and not to set a time limit as long as mother and baby are closely monitored.

Abstract:
We hypothesized that foetal administration of SQ-29,548, a putative thromboxane receptor blocker, would prevent foeto–placental vasoconstriction produced by the thromboxane mimic U46619. Arterial blood gases, continuous monitoring of maternal and foetal heart rates and blood pressures were performed in chronically catheterized pregnant ewes. Foetal blood flows and vascular resistance were determined with radioactive microspheres. SQ-29,548 effectively blocked the expected vasoconstrictive effects of thromboxane. However, prolonged infusion of SQ-29,548 resulted in significant decreases in umbilical–placental blood flow and foetal mean arterial pressure. This was accompanied by a respiratory acidemia. Potential therapy for the vasoconstrictive disorders of pregnancy with SQ-29,548 awaits further investigation of its intrinsic vasoactive properties in the umbilical–placental vasculature.

Abstract:
Many midwives continue to use Continuous Electronic Foetal Monitoring (CEFM) on low risk women in labour, despite overwhelming clinical evidence that it is unnecessary. The use of CEFM on low risk labouring women has been linked to rising rates of medical intervention during labour and birth with no improvement in long term neonatal outcomes. This study examined the decision-making processes of midwives who used CEFM on low risk labouring women. Whilst a number of previous studies have examined various aspects of CEFM, none specific to midwives’ decision-making and CEFM on low risk labouring women. This study contributes to the literature in this specific area. The theoretical origins of Symbolic Interactionism and Grounded Theory (GT) methods underpin this study. SI, a sociological theory that emphasises meaning in human interactions and behaviours is used in this study to focus on the behaviours and interactions of five midwives’when deciding to use CEFM on low risk labouring women. Primary data were collected by conducting unstructured interviews and systematic analysis was undertaken using GT methods to generate a substantive theory of: Midwives’ CEFM decision-making despite evidence based guidelines. The midwives made the decision that led to CEFM at two key points in the woman’s labour care. Firstly, during the initial assessment of the woman and foetus, some midwives decided to use a baseline CTG rather than intermittent auscultation (IA). Secondly, following initial assessment, the midwives made an individualised assessment and decided whether to use CEFM as the method to monitor the foetus during labour. Trust was identified as the core variable, having a profound effect on the midwives’ decision-making at these two points. Another significant factor that impacted on decision-making was staff workload. Recommendations relating to these findings promote that labouring women be central and intimately involved in decisions about foetal monitoring. Workplace reforms, such as the introduction of midwifery led models of care for women within a community setting are recommended to address professional trust and workload issues. Through the implementation of these recommendations it is expected that midwives will embrace the notion of woman centred care and that the unnecessary use of CEFM on low risk labouring women will be reduced.

Abstract:
Continuous security monitoring is the process of following up the IT systems by collecting measurements, reporting and analysis of the results for comparing the security level of the organization on continuous time axis to see how organizational security is progressing in the course of time. In the related literature there is very limited work done to continuously monitor the security of the organizations. In this thesis, a continuous security monitoring framework based on security metrics is proposed. Moreover, to decrease the burden of implementation a software tool called SecMon is introduced. The implementation of the framework in a public organization shows that the proposed system is successful for building an organizational memory and giving insight to the security stakeholders about the IT security level in the organization.

Abstract:
Cloud Computing technology offers an advanced approach for the provision of infrastructure, platform and software services without the need of extensive cost of owning, operating or maintaining the computational infrastructures required. However, despite being cost effective, this technology has raised concerns regarding the security, privacy and compliance of data or services offered through cloud systems. This is mainly due to the lack of transparency of services to the consumers, or due to the fact that service providers are unwilling to take full responsibility for the security of services that they offer through cloud systems, and accept liability for security breaches [18]. In such circumstances, there is a trust deficiency that needs to be addressed. The potential of certification as a means of addressing the lack of trust regarding the security of different types of services, including the cloud, has been widely recognised [149]. However, the recognition of this potential has not led to a wide adoption, as it was expected. The reason could be that certification has traditionally been carried out through standards and certification schemes (e.g., ISO27001 [149], ISO27002 [149] and Common Criteria [65]), which involve predominantly manual systems for security auditing, testing and inspection processes. Such processes tend to be lengthy and have a significant financial cost, which often prevents small technology vendors from adopting it [87]. In this thesis, we present an automated approach for cloud service certification, where the evidence is gathered through continuous monitoring. This approach can be used to: (a) define and execute automatically certification models, to continuously acquire and analyse evidence regarding the provision of services on cloud infrastructures through continuous monitoring; (b) use this evidence to assess whether the provision is compliant with required security properties; and (c) generate and manage digital certificates to confirm the compliance of services with specific security properties.

Abstract:
This thesis describes the power analysis of the electronic beehive monitoring system. The electronic beehive monitoring system was made to work either with a UB12120 12V 12Ah standard lead-acid battery or an Anker (TM) Astro E7 5V lithium-ion battery to analyze the power requirements. These batteries are recharged by Renogy 50Watt 12 Volt Monocrystalline Solar Panel. Power analysis is performed using both batteries to calculate system’s efficiency. The performed power analysis indicates that the Anker (TM) Astro E7 26800mAh 5V lithium-ion battery runs approximately 6 hours more than the lead acid battery. Moreover, the lithium-ion battery is compact, has a lighter weight, is more efficient, and has a longer cycle life. Using lithium-ion batteries will likely result in fewer hardware components and a smaller environmental footprint.

Abstract:
L'objectif de la thèse est de concevoir des compensateurs discrets qui permettent de compenser les non-linéarités introduites par les différents éléments dans la boucle de commande numérique, tout en maintenant des performances dynamiques élevées, des temps de développement rapide, et une structure reconfigurable. Ces compensateurs discrets doivent également avoir des temps de réponse rapide, avoir une déviation de la tension minimale et avoir, pour un étage de puissance donné, un temps de récupération rapide de la tension. Ces performances peuvent être atteintes par des compensateurs discrets conçus sur la base de techniques de contrôle linéaires et non linéaires. Pour obtenir une réponse rapide et stable, la thèse propose deux solutions : La première consiste à utiliser des techniques de contrôle linéaires et de concevoir le compensateur discret tout en gardant la bande passante la plus élevée possible. Il est communément admis que plus la bande passante est élevée, plus la réponse transitoire est rapide. L‘obtention d’une bande passante élevée, en utilisant des techniques de contrôle linéaires, est parfois difficile. Toutes ces situations sont mises en évidence dans la thèse. La seconde consiste à combiner les techniques de contrôle linéaires avec les techniques de contrôles non linéaires tels que la logique floue ou les réseaux de neurones. Les résultats de simulations ont permis de vérifier que la combinaison des contrôleurs non-linéaires avec les linéaires ont un meilleur rendement dynamique que les contrôleurs linéaires lorsque le point de fonctionnement varie. Avec l'aide des deux méthodes décrites ci-dessus, la thèse étudie également la technique de l’annulation des pôles-zéros (PZC) qui annule la fonction de transfert du convertisseur. Quelques modifications des techniques classiques de contrôle sont également proposées à partir de contrôleurs numériques afin d’améliorer les performances dynamiques. La thèse met également en évidence les non-linéarités qui dégradent les performances, propose les solutions permettant d'obtenir les meilleures performances, et lève les mystères du contrôle numérique. Une interface graphique est également introduite et illustrée dans le cas de la conception d'un convertisseur abaisseur de tension synchrone. En résumé, cette thèse décrit principalement l'analyse, la conception, la simulation, l’optimisation la mise en œuvre et la rentabilité des contrôleurs numériques. Une attention particulière est portée à l'analyse et l'optimisation des performances dynamique à haute fréquence et pour de faibles puissances des convertisseurs DC-DC abaisseur de tension. Ces convertisseurs fonctionnent en mode de conduction continue (CCM) à une fréquence de commutation de 1 MHz et s’appuie sur des techniques de contrôle linéaires et non linéaires de façon séquentielle
The objective of the thesis is to design the discrete compensators which counteract the nonlinearities introduced by various elements in the digital control loop while delivering high dynamic performance, fast time-to-market and scalability. Excellent line and fast load transient response, which is a measure of the system response speed, with minimal achievable voltage deviation and a fast voltage recovery time for a given power stage can be achieved through the discrete compensators designed on the basis of linear and nonlinear control techniques. To achieve a stable and fast response, the thesis proposes two ways. One way is to use linear control techniques to design the discrete compensator while keeping the bandwidth higher. It is well-known fact that the higher the bandwidth, the faster is the transient response. Achieving higher bandwidth through linear control techniques sometimes becomes tricky. All those situations are highlighted in the thesis. The other way is to hybridize the linear control techniques with the nonlinear control techniques such as fuzzy logic or neural network based control techniques. Simulation results verify that hybridization of nonlinear controllers with the linear ones have better dynamic performance over linear controllers under the change of operating points. Along with using the two methodologies described above, the thesis also investigates the pole-zero cancellation (PZC) technique in which the poles and zeros of the compensator are placed in such a way that they cancel the effect of the poles or zeros of the buck converter to boost the phase margin at the required bandwidth. Some modifications are also suggested to the classical control techniques based digital controllers to improve the dynamic performance. The thesis highlights the nonlinearities which degrade the performance, a cost-effective solution that achieves good performance and the mysteries of digital control system. A graphical user interface is introduced and demonstrated for use with the design of a synchronous-buck converter. In summary, this thesis mainly describes the analysis, design, simulation, optimization, implementation and cost effectiveness of digital controllers with particular focus on the analysis and the optimization of the dynamic performance for high-frequency low-power DC-DC buck converter working in continuous conduction mode (CCM) operating at a switching frequency of 1 MHz using linear and nonlinear control techniques in a very sequential and comprehensive way

Over the past few decades, electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) systems have emerged as a very promising tool to facilitate monitoring by various healthcare practitioners, including midwives, obstetricians, and labor and delivery nursing staff. The inception of electronic fetal monitoring systems encourages the integration of many clinical activities in fetal monitoring; however, current technologies lack a means for automatic and continuous monitoring, thus depriving obstetricians the opportunity to conduct real-time, longitudinal fetal monitoring services. Promoting the use of ubiquitous fetal monitoring services with real time status assessments requires a robust information platform equipped with an automatic diagnosis engine. Therefore, we describe an automated EFM data analyzer (AEDA) capable of continuously and automatically analyzing EFM data. We present the design and development of a real-time EFM diagnosis service based on a restricted Boltzmann machine. This service preprocesses raw heart rate (HR) and uterus contraction (UC) numeric series into discrete peaks and valleys (events) with the assumption that these numeric series are continuous. When abnormal events are detected, the deep restricted Boltzmann machine determines whether a C-section surgical procedure is urgently required. In addition to producing the final determination, this service graphs the raw HR and UC series with marked supporting abnormal events.

Providing high quality health care to a mass population is becoming one of the great endeavors of modern society. In order to do so, there is a urge to embrace the use of new technologies that can provide comfort while ensuring the safety and reliability of traditional methods. The system hereby proposed ought to be capable of monitoring a person's vital signs therefore being very flexible regarding its application scenarios. It can be used not only in emergency wards and screening diseases but also in a home environment to monitor elderly people or young children. Furthermore, it is not exclusive to monitoring and preventing diseases, it can also be an instrument that aids sports training at high intensity levels. This product can measure a patient's heart rate and oxygen saturation levels ensuring comfort and easy usage. Another advantage when compared to traditional machines used to fit the same purpose is the fact that it is much cheaper, takes up less space and it encompasses two functional- ities that are otherwise measured with different machines. This system has two major components, an ESP32 microprocessor and a MAX30100 Pho- toPletysmoGraphy (PPG) sensor. The ESP32 module was chosen due to its computing capacity (dual-core 32-bit processor), having a WiFi module built in with full TCP/IP stack and having 3 pre-defined sleep modes to reduce power consumption. The MAX30100 sensor was picked because it is a compact and small module with simple usage. Furthermore, the goal of this disser- tation is to build this system to be energy efficient, maximizing its battery life while not compro- mising its logical correctness. The configuration chosen that produced steady results whilst consuming lowest energy possi- ble was: 37 mA of current for the IR LED, sampling frequency of 50 Hz and pulse width of 200 μs.

Abstract:
Nowadays, the maintenance activities are the ones that most draw the attention of companies due to the increased costs of sudden machines stop, and consequently, stop the production processes. These stops are mostly caused by wear-out of its components that lead to machine breakdown and a close monitoring of the manufacturing processes need to be made. Based on this, and to increase the production line efficiency, there's a need to continuously monitor the machines' performance, and together with all the historical maintenance data, create strategies to minimize the maintenance phases and costs. These strategies may lie in the prediction of a suitable time periods to perform maintenance operations, a based on that, group a set of machines together to perform maintenance activities between day-off and day-on shifts. This represents a difficulty mainly because the increased complexity of scheduling and planning activities of a production line, being necessary to minimize the impact of maintenance activities based on failure prediction in all the already existing plan.

Abstract:
Pregnancy outcomes in Type 1 diabetes have progressively improved, but are not yet at background population level. Insulin requirements increase early in pregnancy, followed by a nadir at 16–18 weeks, consistently climbing nearly to delivery. Everyone who sees Type 1 patients of childbearing years should be able to deliver concise and practical advice on pre-pregnancy management, including contraception advice. About one-third of UK pregnancies are unplanned. Even where formal counselling is readily available, most women do not access it. Maternal risks during pregnancy include exacerbation of pre-existing complications, hypoglycaemia, and pre-eclampsia; foetal risks include pregnancy loss, fetal malformation, prematurity, macrosomia, stillbirth, and neonatal death. Ideal preconception A1C is 6 to 7% (42 to 53 mmol/mol). Most insulin preparations are safe during pregnancy. Continuous glucose monitoring and insulin pump therapy are increasingly used, but evidence of definite benefit is awaited. Women are usually highly motivated to optimize glycaemic control during pregnancy.

Abstract:
Remote patient monitoring involves the collection of data from wearable sensors that typically requires analysis in real time. The real-time analysis of data streaming continuously to a server challenges data mining algorithms that have mostly been developed for static data residing in central repositories. Remote patient monitoring also generates huge data sets that present storage and management problems. Although virtual records of every health event throughout an individual's lifespan known as the electronic health record are rapidly emerging, few electronic records accommodate data from continuous remote patient monitoring. These factors combine to make data analytics with continuous patient data very challenging. In this chapter, benefits for data analytics inherent in the use of standards for clinical concepts for remote patient monitoring is presented. The openEHR standard that describes the way in which concepts are used in clinical practice is well suited to be adopted as the standard required to record meta-data about remote monitoring. The claim is advanced that this is likely to facilitate meaningful real time analyses with big remote patient monitoring data. The point is made by drawing on a case study involving the transmission of patient vital sign data collected from wearable sensors in an Indian hospital.

Abstract:
The process of labour and delivery can be a hazardous journey for the fetus. The principal aim of monitoring a fetus during labour is to detect changes in the fetal heart rate that suggest a possibility of fetal hypoxia and metabolic acidosis so that timely action can be taken to prevent adverse outcomes. For the last four decades, intrapartum monitoring of fetuses has been commonly performed by either intermittent auscultation or electronic fetal heart rate monitoring (EFM). While intermittent auscultation has been the method of choice in low-risk pregnancies and in settings with limited resources, continuous EFM by cardiotocography has formed the mainstay of fetal surveillance in high-risk pregnancies in most of the high-resourced countries. The terminology, classification, and threshold for intervention with the use of EFM are discussed and adjunct technologies that support the use of EFM are also considered.

Abstract:
Infant cry is considered as the first biological signal communicated by the newborns to the mother and the outside world. In NICU, there is a huge need to monitor the physiological conditions of the premature and full term infants. In such environment, the cry signal conveys significant information in terms of the distress of the infant and thereby needs of the infants can be well attended. Establishment of the portable device is thus essential for such scenario. This work enumerates a primitive experimental study on developing portable electronic medical device for infant cry recognition. The setup comprises of a voice recorder, NI My RIO processor with a Lab view followed by the LCD Tablet for display. The cry signals were recorded by placing the voice recorder in the incubator and were qualitatively assessed by the clinician and confirm its suitability for the experimental study. A threshold based classification was employed which sends the voice based alarm to the tablet. The continuous monitoring of such facility in NICU provides the behavioral status of the infant

Abstract:
The use of data for identifying individuals at risk for chronic or high-cost health conditions has been expanding over the past dozen years. The availability of data from patient electronic health records and other sources close to the patient, such as through continuous physiologic monitoring, are demonstrating that information from these sources can greatly assist in both identifying the patients most likely to be at-risk as well as providing the insight into which patients, once diagnosed, are likely to experience adverse events while in-hospital or at-home. In this chapter, the authors discuss key health-related patient safety issues and how the use of data from population-based sources such as health information exchanges (HIEs), electronic health record systems (EHRs), and real-time sources such as continuous physiologic monitoring can assist in diagnosing and identifying key markers of patient adverse events. The interpretation of these data can result in earlier intervention at the bedside that have an impact on patient safety and the health of individuals.

Abstract:
This article describes how electronic healthcare has been the key application of pervasive computing innovations to enhance healthcare quality and protect human lives. Specific patients of constant sicknesses and elderly individuals, by and large, may oblige continuous observing of their wellbeing status wherever they are. In this regard, remote patient monitoring technology plays the various important role through wearable devices to monitor patient's physiological figures. But, this must ensure some broad issues like, wearability, adaptability, interoperability, integration, security, and network efficiency. This article proposes a data-driven multi-layer architecture for pervasively remote patient monitoring that incorporates aforesaid issues. It enables the patient's care at the real time and supports anywhere and anytime requirement with using network infrastructure efficiently.

Abstract:
Electronic nose systems are used to deliver a pattern response to a listed odor, and pattern recognition software is used to perform odor recognition and discrimination by using a series of sensors. The method of electronic noses generally includes time taking measurements in a non-standard test and error process. The sensory panel problem can be solved by electronic nose. For this purpose, a sensor model is used to design sensor array. The generated signal of these sensor array is used further to classify a mixture of two gases using principle component analysis (PCA)-based classification analysis. During classification, the efficiency of PCA classification has been checked over the different signal preprocessing technique. Continuous real monitoring of odor is done at specific sites in the field over hours, days, weeks, or even months. An electronic machine can also avoid many other troubles linked with the employ of human panels. Each and every variability, adaptation (becoming minimum sensitive during extended exposure), and revelation to hazardous compounds all come to mind.

Abstract:
The efficiency of a traceability system depends on the ability to identify uniquely each unit that is produced and distributed in a way that enables the continuous tracking from the primary production to the retail point of sale. An efficient traceability system must follow some rules that define which data must be gathered and stored in each stage of the supply chain. This is achieved by standardization of the gathered data and typification of the messages that enable storing and communication of the data. This chapter presents a Web-platform that will be able to support efficiently food traceability by monitoring and administering the data gathered and recorded in a central database. This application will be user friendly and provide the ability to keep, display, and communicate information through widely implemented technologies, such as the Internet and electronic mail services.
