This paper presents the development of the Alvar Architecture, which aims to manage learning materials (images, videos, and others medias) shared by professors and the health care team from the emergency unit of a University Hospital. The main objective was to model a web-based architecture for knowledge sharing, which enables precise documents search in weak-connectivity conditions from mobile computing devices. To demonstrate and validate the architecture, a prototype was implemented, named Alvar System, using free and open source software. Early results suggest that the implemented prototype can be successfully applied in the emergency unit to promote knowledge sharing by expert professors and their students.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
