Summary	Abstract: This research has developed a real-time monitoring system to capture spatio-temporal data and identity on operational stuffs at an operating room using the ultrasonic 3D tag technology. We also propose methods for data visualization and data mining to extract spatio-temporal patterns during an operation. Further, we supply the acquired information to the surgical headquarters, where a general manager, typically an expert surgeon, is permanently stationed and remotely supports an operation. By integrating the data we provide and other information available at the surgical headquarters including camera captured images and audio data, the manager supervises the teamwork among operational stuffs and the use between intelligent surgical instruments and other medical equipments. Ultimately the integrated multi-dimensional information contributes detecting normal/abnormal patterns, transitions, and key signatures that dynamically supports an operation via the surgical headquarters.
