Trial objectives

A flood impact assessing methodology was proposed and examined in Qingshan reservoir.

The paper proposes ‘scientific foundations to support the emergency response management’. (abstract). “The work in this research paper can be highlighted as three items:(1) Two kinds of emergency response frameworks are built based on OODA [Observe, Orient, Decide, Act; from military operations] loop theory.(2) Describe the emergency response mechanism based on OODA–DEVS [Discrete Event System Specification.(3) Emergency response system on earthquake is modeling and simulating based on the mentioned mechanism.” (p. 528)

identify the factors that affect the formation of shared situation awareness in search and rescue operations. 1. Goal was to specify the critical information needs of the SAR operation on the operational level 2.Goal was to describe how different actors communicate during an SAR operation 3.Goal was to study in more detail the role of trust in the SAR context

The framework adopts the Complex Adaptive Systems modelling approach, and proposes the agent-based simulation as cognitive tool for the team which designs the plans.“…adopts the Complex Adaptive Systems modelling approach, and proposes the agent-based simulation … “ pp. 920“ The framework is demonstrated through an application in a metro system, for the case of a framing train stalled between two stations.” pp. 920

Experimental evaluation: Participants were asked to perform three tasks of incremental difficulty and to fill a post-task questionnaire using the eStoryS system.Three tasks to complete were related to the specific use of eStoryS in the domain of emergencies: Generic task, Required the use of a timeline to solve the task more efficientlyRequired the use of the story- board tool to collect information about the

Investigate the information needs, communications and work processes of managers of multiple facilities that require support during routine and emergency operations at a large local health jurisdiction.The interview guide covered the following six areas: Professional public health background of each participantNormal duties, decisions and use of technologiesDecisions and communication channels used during routine vs. emergency operationsBarriers and needs to successful communication with staffCurrent understanding of the continuity of operations planInformation about a recent regional snow storm as critical incident.

Focus on the demonstration of scheduling the optimal path for containermultimodal transport by the model defined, through a case inputting parameters to a multimodal transport network.

Evaluation of these virtual world simulation exercises shows that trainees find them to be adequately realistic to ‘‘suspend disbelief,’’ and they quickly learn to use Internet voice communication and user interface to navigate their online character/avatar to work effectively in a critical care team.1st Study: Training sessions conducted with students/interns randomly assigned either to human-patient simulator (HPS) or to a virtual world (VW) for trauma cases simulations. 2nd Study:3D virtual simulation of 2 worlds for the rapid response to a chemical, biologic, radiologic, nuclear, or highly explosive (CBRNE) incident.3rd Study:Creation of a 3D virtual world replica of the Stanford emergency department for training hospital staff to assess and manage mass casualties after a CBRNE incident.

A simulation-based team-training course for obstetric clinicians was developed and is a central component of the Controlled Risk Insurance Company (CRICO) / Risk Management Foundation (RMF’s) obstetric risk management incentive program.
