| Development, initial reliability and validity testing of an observational tool for assessing technical skills of operating room nurses | Summary
Twenty trainee OR nurses and two senior OR trainer nurses took part in the study. ICATS-N was tested in the context of surgical crisis simulations. The simulations were carried out in a Simulated Operating Room (SOR) in the hospital. The SOR is a fully equipped OR with a control room, through which trainers can direct simulation exercises and observe the trainees via one-way mirror. |

| Towards a Lightweight Approach for On-site Interaction Evaluation of Safety-critical Mobile Systems | Summary
For the evaluation of the app, we faced the problem that people participating in a large event, such as a soccer match, are not willing to spend time on completing a long survey or interview. Hence, the goal of this contribution was to select and perform an on-site mobile evaluation approach that fits this context and allows us to evaluate the user interaction. The evaluation took place during the FIFA World Cup 2014 and tested the usability of the app with 112 users in Brazil and in Germany.The moderator showed a picture of a fire in a stadium (see Figure 1, right) and asked the participants to imagine that the fire observed in the picture was burning on the other side of the stadium or venue and that they wanted to inform the firefighters by means of the RESCUER app. After this instruction, the moderator assigned the tasks to be performed by the participants. For each task, the observer completed the following items: Did the user accomplish the task successfully? Did the user accomplish the task without further questAfter performing all assigned tasks in the application, the users were asked to complete a Mini AttrakDiff questionnaire and a demographic data surveyions, after 1-2 questions, after 3-4 questions, or after 5 or more questions? |
| Flood Emergency Management Using Hydrodynamic Modelling | Summary
Locating in middle and lower reaches of South Shaoxi Brook, Qingshan is a large (2) type reservoir for flood control mainly, with purpose of irrigation, power generation and others. Qingshan Reservoir plays a significant role to protect safety of Datang, the dangerous place in the west of Hangzhou City. |
