Rehabilitation aids help people with temporal or permanent disabilities during the rehabilitation process. However, these solutions are usually expensive and, consequently, inaccessible outside of professional medical institutions. Rapid advances in software development, Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, and additive manufacturing open up a way to affordable rehabilitation solutions, even to the general population. Imagine a rehabilitation aid constructed from accessible software and hardware with local production. Many obstacles exist to using such technology, starting with the development of unified software for custom-made devices. In this paper, we address open issues in designing rehabilitation aids by proposing an extensive rehabilitation platform. To demonstrate our concept, we developed a unique platform, RehabHand. The main idea is to use domain-specific language and code generation techniques to enable loosely coupled software and hardware solutions. The main advantage of such separation is support for modular and a higher abstraction level by enabling therapists to write rehabilitation exercises in natural, domain-specific terminology and share them with patients. The same platform provides a hardware-independent part that facilitates the integration of new rehabilitation devices. Experience in implementing RehabHand with three different rehabilitation devices confirms that such rehabilitation technology can be developed, and shows that implementing a hardware-independent rehabilitation platform might not be as challenging as expected.
V članku želimo predstaviti vodenje v Slovenski vojski v širšem in ožjem smislu ter nerešena vprašanja na različnih ravneh. Vodenje je proces in ne le dolžnost in tako bi ga morali tudi razumeti. Vodenje ne poteka le do določene ravni znotraj vojaške organizacije, temveč je pomemben proces pri delu z ljudmi. Rezultate in ugotovitve bomo lahko uporabili za lažje razumevanje vodenja in nedorečenosti tega pojava, na drugi strani pa za lažje razumevanje nujnosti zavedanja pomembnosti sodobnih izzivov vodenja. Prispevek omogoča bralcu celovit vpogled v vodenje v hierarhični organizaciji, kot je Slovenska vojska. Ključne besede: vodenje, vojaško vodenje, Slovenska vojska, poveljevanje. Abstract The purpose of the article is to present leadership in the Slovenian Armed Forces (SAF) both in a broader and narrower sense as well as to present the unresolved issues at various levels. Leadership is a process not just a duty and should therefore be perceived as such. It is not applied just up to a certain level within a military organization, but is a key process in working with people. The results and findings of this article can be used to facilitate the understanding of leadership and the obvious vagueness of this phenomenon, and on the other hand to enable a better comprehension of how important it is to realize the importance of contemporary leadership challenges. The article provides the reader with a comprehensive insight into leadership in a hierarchical organization such as the SAF. Key words: Leadership, military leadership, Slovenian Armed Forces, command.
The main theme of the paper is the Concept of Military Leadership in the Slovenian Armed Forces, which currently represents the highest substantive and guiding normative act in the field of military leadership in the Slovenian Armed Forces (hereinafter referred to as the SAF). Due to the enormous importance of this field in working with people and the aim of influencing the change of the concept, the paper analysed and compared the concepts of military leadership in other selected armed forces and looked for similarities and divergences, especially in two segments - substantive and normative. On the one hand, we have shown the substantive obsolescence and inadequate normative rank of the Concept of Military Leadership in the Slovenian Armed Forces and, on the other hand, the necessity of substantive updating with concrete proposals and arguments for the development of the Doctrine of Military Leadership in the SAF. Key words Leadership, armed forces, Concept of Military Leadership in the SAF
