OpenDDS. OpenDDS is an open source C++ implementation of the Object Management Group (OMG) Data Distribution Service (DDS). OpenDDS also supports Java bindings through JNI and can be included with JBoss (ESB) frameworks by means of a JMS wrapper. OpenDDS leverages the ADAPTIVE Communication Environment (ACE) to provide a cross platform environment.
Electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve, called vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), is sometimes used to treat people with epilepsy or depression. The vagus nerve is involved in one of the most common causes of fainting, called vasovagal syncope.This is an overreaction of the body to certain stimuli, like the sight of blood, which involves the stimulation of the vagus nerve. This stimulation causes a drop in blood pressure and heart rate.Less blood flows to brain, resulting in loss of consciousness.his is an overreaction of the body to certain stimuli, like the sight of blood, which involves the stimulation of the vagus nerve.

ABSTRACT The vagus nerve, the major nerve of the parasympathetic nervous system, innervates several organs from the neck to the abdomen. The vagal branches contain afferent (i.e. sensory) and efferent (i.e. motor) fibres contributing to a bidirectional communication between the visceral organs and the brain.ithin the medulla, the cell bodies of vagal preganglionic neurons are found in the nucleus ambiguous (NA) and the dorsal motor of the vagus (DMV). These nuclei supply fibres to the vagus nerve, which emerges from the cranium via the jugular foramen.
