The quantity of thoracic radiographies in the medical field is ever growing. An automated system for segmenting the images would help doctors enormously. Some approaches are knowledge-based; therefore we propose here an ontology for this purpose. Thus it is machine oriented, rather than human-oriented. That is all the structures visible on a thoracic image are described from a technical point of view.

The paper presents the potential of smart glasses and remote support technologies in naval operations. It emphasizes the challenges of limited internet access at sea and proposes solutions like STUN and TURN servers for effective communication. Smart glasses offer realtime assistance, aiding in diagnosing mechanical faults and facilitating information exchange between on-board engineers and land-based experts. The system's architecture, optimized for low-bandwidth environments, consists of a Support Center and Client Device. Additionally, the implementation of virtual reality (VR) technology in maritime personnel training is explored, showcasing its potential for education and intervention management. Overall, smart glasses and remote support offer promising solutions for naval communication hurdles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Java language contains features that make it a convenient alternative for industrial automation programming. Those features include multithreading and automatic garbage collection. However, this solution needs to be tested and validated in practice. This paper presents a simple solution for automating the ink refilling process for a large format printer, made entirely in Java.

Hatching is a well-known technique of nonphotorealistic rendering. There have been proposed various computer hatching techniques that are trying to imitate the classic styles used by artists and designers. The hatch technique proposed in this article attempts to simulate as accurately as possible the gray tones in an image, using parallel lines placed horizontally or vertically. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
