A general methodology for data-based rule building and its application to natural disaster management
Summary

Although the system is a prototype, validation results suggest the suitability of the approach developed in this paperMore research  with the SEDD project is neededThe authors emphasize the need to develop decision support tools specifically to address the problem of unrealistic complexity in standard existing DSS. They show that it is possible to design such a practical decision support tool so that it can be implemented in context such as developing countries or NGOs.

The workpad user interface and methodology: Developing smart and effective mobile applications for emergency operators
Summary

Methods applied are useful

Short simulation exercises to improve emergency department nurses' self-efficacy for initial disaster management: Controlled before and after study.
Summary

Short computer based simulation exercises provide opportunities for head nurses to improve management skills and increase their general self-efficacyIt is important not to overestimate the association between reported self-efficacy and abilities.There are two ways to interpret the results: i) that the trainees have improved general skill of managing surge which will translate to more efficient handling during a real MI, or ii) that the trainees have improved specifically in their skill at running the simulator only and will be no better at handling a real MI.It is not possible from this study alone to conclude anything about the simulation validity.Further studies are needed specifically aimed at addressing the question of simulation validity

Public Health System Research in Public Health Emergency Preparedness in the United States (2009—2015): Actionable Knowledge Base.
Summary

The results of this review provide an evidence base for public health practitioners responsible for enhancing key components of preparedness and response such as communication, training and planning effortsResearch gaps remain, in particular in the area of information sharing, communication to the public, and the development of criteria and metricsThe authors acknowledge that the literature search strategy, adopted from a previous study to allow comparisons over time, may lack specificity in this field.This synthesis does not include articles related to research areas that were not considered a priority by the 2008 IOM letter report, limiting the findings to this niche of research.The authors recognize that results from systematic reviews can direct and influence the development of future research agendas in a meaningful way only when well integrated with input from practitioners on what knowledge production is most needed to address practice questions. As well as on the best ways to disseminate existing knowledge that does not reach practitioners. Thus, this review should be considered only a first step in this direction.Future steps will consist in combining these results with feedback from practitioners engaged in preparedness efforts.

Interactive plant simulation modeling for developing an operator training system in a natural gas pressure-regulating station.
Summary

The model could be applied to a more complex process such as a petrochemical plant in the future, and higher effectiveness of training is expected as the operating procedure becomes more complex

Identifying and explicating knowledge on method transfer: a sectoral system of innovation approach.
Summary

Heuristic evaluation is an inspection method, requiring experts in interactive technologies and usability.

A dynamic model for disaster response considering prioritized demand points.
Summary

development of a dynamic model, focusing on computational methodologies

Influencing Factors on Social Media Adoption in County-level Emergency Management Departments.
Summary

As emergency management departments continue to adopt and use social media, it will become increasingly important for both practitioners and academics to better understand this complex, ever-evolving communication tool.
