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

Build fuzzy rules from data with an inductive methodology. Rule aggregation and inference are then performed by means of a weighted averaging operators approach.

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

two-fold methodology (bottom-up and top-down) high-level approachwith various HCI (Human-Computer Interaction) techniques with focus on user-centred design (UCD) principles to develop an adaptive peer-to-peer (P2P) software and communication infrastructureBottom-up approach: A concrete case study of emergency management in theCalabria region was conducted. Potential users were intensively involved in thisproject phase− Top-down approach: On the one hand we investigated European legislation, recommendations,and initiatives with respect to emergency management, and on the other hand, related European research projects were examined regarding the adopted requirements analysis methods, the concrete outcomes and their validity for the WORKPAD project.

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

A within-group pretest-posttest design was used to examine 13 head nurses’ general and specific self-efficacy before and after an intervention consisting of three short computer based simulation exercises during a 1 hour session. Management skills were assessed using the computer simulation tool DigEmergo.

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

Modeling of an interactive plant simulation. The study suggests a real-time 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics (3D–CFD) data processing method to increase the training effectiveness of the model.
