sessions conducted with students/interns randomly assigned either to human-patient simulator (HPS) or to a virtual world (VW). Additionally, trainees were given pretest and posttest cases, where experienced clinicians observed the performance and assigned scores.2nd Study:Teams were composed of experienced paramedics, EMT team members, and ED physicians. Satisfaction survey completed in the end of the sessions + focus group discussion.3rd Study:Participants were physicians and nurses, who were evaluated on 2 different groups with debriefing sessions and surveys + open discussion.

ontologies to extract geographic and thematic references from web documents referenced from real simple syndication (RSS) feeds. RSS feeds are used as a primary information source as they are an increasingly used format for web content publication and are easy to access computationally due to their XML structur.Upon retrieving an RSS feed, results found by the CDA’s geographic text extraction and geocoding process are rendered in KML and presented in Google Earth using a network link object connected to the CDA information processing server.If an origin point is established, connection line thickness indicates the frequency of place references in a document. The geographic scales of entities found (country, city, county, town etc.) are represented using point symbol shapes. Line and point transparencies indicate how old a document is relative to when the KML was created by the CDA.These visual encoding strategies are used to help Situation where widespread human, material, economic or environmental losses have occurred which exceeded the ability of the affected organisation, community or society to respond and recover using its own resources.
