OBJECTIVE We developed a simulated driving environment for studying neural correlates of emergency braking in diversified driving situations. We further investigated to what extent these neural correlates can be used to detect a participant's braking intention prior to the behavioral response. APPROACH We measured electroencephalographic (EEG) and electromyographic signals during simulated dr...

the use o f a smal l dose of neostigmine during i nduction of anesthesia provides many valudable clinical manifestation which have been discussed in detail . i believe this method of anesthesia might be desirable in emergency situations and whenever the ventilator is not avai labl e .

Tackling emergency situations is performed based on emergency scenarios. These scenarios do not have a uniform form in the Czech Republic. They are unstructured and developed primarily in the text form. This does not allow solving emergency situations efficiently. For this reason, the paper aims at defining a Process Oriented Architecture to support and thus to improve tackling emergency situat...

Implementing systems for emergency response poses various challenges. Information from various sources and systems needs to be integrated, processed, aggregated, and visualized in a dynamic and consistent fashion. Amongst all those challenges, one key issue is the development of an optimal user interface, which allows for intuitive operation with different information as well as supports collab...

Global Maritime Distress Safety System (GMDSS) is one of the best and most efficient systems for emergency. The systems have been developed to provide mariners global communications and locating network. This system includes land stations for all INMARSAT services to reporting at sea, and so far using this communication system, in marine emergency situations has helped rescue thousands of lives...

In clinical oncology emergency situations are either manifestations of the underlying disease or effects of the treatment. The successful treatment of emergency situations is not only important in diseases in which cure is possible. It contributes also essentially to an optimal palliation for not curable disease states in oncology. Some special examples from the point of view of internal medici...

We describe a visual language focused on the design of agent-based simulation models, considering a simulation environment where agent modeling is mainly concerned with the spatial aspects and constraints of the scenario. Such environment is used to test and validate specific action plans designed for execution in specific real word situations, e.g., emergency situations. This work uses as a te...
