Epic-soft software

Our implementations are completed off-site and can typically be completed within 1 to 8 weeks, depending on the size of your organization. Whitepapers Email Address. Sign up! Lost Password?

However since soft purpose hacks do not change any kind of movement or input changes it can be challenging to detect.

Nevertheless, Epic Games continues to work hard to fix the situation and free the community from hackers. FOV removed was instant, other detection features removed. Shoot from hip with snipers using long Lbutton. There are lots of recognized soft top menus etc, high profile players have been caught recently. But, because of a recent dispute with two hackers of Fortnite SoftAim one developer decided to leaked the source code for the hack.

EPIC-Soft consists of three layers: 1 the data access layer, 2 the business logic layer and 3 the user interface. This approach is expected to give more flexibility in the programming and may facilitate possible future adaptations of the software. The user interface was reviewed by a computer graphic specialist aiming to increase user-friendliness. A series of other specifications was added to customize EPIC-Soft more easily and adapt it to specific study aims and needs.

Facilities to manage comments that may arise during the interview in free text format notes were developed. Each of the five interview steps is briefly described below including selected screenshots of the user interface.

General information. During the first interview step, information on the interviewer, the interviewee and the day of interview is collected Screen 1 , which is also used to perform quality checks during and after the interview. The collected information includes whether the recalled day was a special day for example, religious celebration, travel or whether a special diet was followed for example, diabetes, hypertension, vegetarian.

General information screen of the recall day. The colour reproduction of the figure is available at the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition journal online. Quick list. The QLI are entered per food consumption occasion in strictly chronological order of the day. Quick list of items eaten per food consumption occasion. For example, the brand and type of the supplements consumed may already be entered. This information is then prompted in the supplement consumption screen at step 5 of the interview.

Description and quantification of foods and recipes. Each QLI is described in detail and quantified during the description and quantification step. This interview step is subdivided into four main parts as described below. Search and identification: The reported items are selected from the predefined country-specific food or recipe lists Screen 3.

A QLI as reported in the quick list is generally generic for example, bread n. Choice of a food item among the food or recipe list. Description of food by a series of facets and descriptors. Standard ingredients can be substituted if necessary. This information can then be used after the interview to update the recipe file. Recipes are also described using facets and descriptors for example, type of packaging, recipe reheating. A given recipe can also be used as an ingredient of another recipe.

EPIC-Soft is accompanied by a book of colored photos, common across countries, to help the subjects in estimating the portion sizes they actually consumed. In the future, it is perceived to have additional country-specific photos that are produced according to standardized procedures.

Thus, shape, thickness and density mass per unit volume of different types of breads are used for quantification including their toppings for example, butter, jam, honey. For practical reasons, HHMs such as glasses, bowls, are available on pictures. Standard portions are available for foods in small quantities that cannot be quantified by the subject for example, grated cheese on pasta; or onions, nuts or ham in a mixed salad.

The volume method is supposed to provide more flexibility in the quantification, if, for example, a subject knows the volume of an item but not the weight for example, a cup of rice ; HHMs can then be used by the subject to specify the volume. EPIC-Soft automatically converts volumes into gram-weight by applying specific density factors available in the predefined density database. The missing quantification is updated afterward in the EPIC-Soft databases and available for future use.

Fat absorbed by a food during frying or deep frying is automatically calculated based on the food weight and according to the estimated amount of fat used for a given cooking method. If a subject is unable to estimate the quantity of fat, sauce, sweetener added on food or recipe, the system also automatically calculates a standard quantity, adjusted for the weight of the food or recipe actually consumed. Foods are always estimated as consumed, whereas in mixed recipes the consumed quantity is calculated in three steps using common procedures and algorithms:.

An example of a complete description and quantification of foods consumed on a given day is shown on Screen 5. Example of complete description and quantification of foods consumed. Probing and quality controls: After the description and quantification of each food or recipe, a list containing foods, which can easily be forgotten and linked to a given QLI is automatically displayed on the screen.

Particular attention is given to fat, sauce and sugar added to foods, as they are not reported as separate QLI in the quick list.

Various quality checks are made at different steps during the interview procedure. Checks are made on outlier values, either entered by the interviewer or calculated by the system for example, food quantity above a predefined maximum value.

Dietary recall summary and final checks. A final quality check at the nutrient level is performed by comparing intake of energy and macronutrients with standard requirements, based on the subject's age, sex, weight and height. These nutrient intakes are automatically calculated from national food composition databases. The number and type of nutrients displayed can be predefined depending on the study. Final check screen with summarized information and warnings.

Dietary supplement description and quantification. The dietary supplement screen is structured according to the food consumption occasions that were specified during the interview.

As information on dietary supplements is regarded as important, details on dietary supplement consumption are already asked during the quick list step at the beginning of the interview. This information entered during the quick list step is displayed at step 5 of the interview as a reminder and to further detail supplement consumption, if applicable.

Supplements can be entered in all details including quantification, selected from a predefined list or temporarily entered as a new supplement for later update. A description step is available, for example, to systematically describe the type, amount, dosage and brand of the supplement consumed.

This justified further investments and developments. Although the well-proven concept and structure of the initial software were not changed substantially, the migration of EPIC-Soft into a modern Windows environment and the reprogramming of the framework of the software should ensure its long-term sustainability and adaptability to potential new requests and web technologies.

Other more functional facilities were also implemented into EPIC-Soft to optimize the use of the software for the convenience of future users and increase further its customization to other countries or study contexts. The validity of the EPIC-Soft program, as a reference calibration method for between-country comparisons, was already positively evaluated in a number of studies within the EPIC calibration study using nutritional biomarkers Slimani et al.
