Biological Early Warning Systems using UChoo Algorithm

An early warning on early warning systems!

Early warning systems for hazardous biological agents in potable water.

Background There is a growing concern with the potential for terrorist use of biological weapons (bioweapons) to cause civilian harm (1–5) This concern has been focused around two assumptions: that a terrorist is most likely to effectively disperse bioweapons through air (3), and that we must be prepared to address terrorist use of bioweapons through treatment of affected individuals, with emph...

WG Early Warning Systems

Early Warning Systems aim at detecting unclassified but potentially harmful system behavior based on preliminary indications and are complementary to Intrusion Detection Systems. Both kinds of systems try to detect, identify and react before possible damage occurs and contribute to an integrated and aggregated situation report (big picture). A particular emphasis of Early Warning Systems is to ...

Famine Early Warning Systems Network

slowly evolving natural hazards such as agricultural drought. Famine early warning systems transform these data into actionable policy information, enabling humanitarian organizations to respond in a timely and appropriate manner. These life-saving responses are increasingly important: In 2006, one out of eight people did not have enough food to eat and 22 million more people became sufficientl...

Early Warning Systems: A Review

Numerous scientific research and engineering programs are being carried out globally in an effort to monitor environmental degradation, natural and anthropogenic disasters. These are part of a process to predict possible catastrophic events and help minimize their devastating impact on the environment and human life. Many of these programs, sometimes referred to as Early Warning Systems (EWSs),...
