Clinical study has found early detection and intervention to be essential for preventing clinical deterioration in patients at general hospital units. In this paper, we envision a two-tiered early warning system designed to identify the signs of clinical deterioration and provide early warning of serious clinical events. The first tier of the system automatically identifies patients at risk of ...

This paper analysis the integrated use of safety monitoring with the domestic and international latest research on rail safety protection system, and focus on the implementation of an organic whole system, with the monitoring and early warning, risk assessment, predictive control and emergency rescue system. The system framework, contents and system structure of Security system is proposed comp...

Despite the potential of new technologies and the improvements of early-warning systems since the 2004 Tsunami, damage and harm caused by disasters do not stop to increase. There is a clear need for better integrating the fragmented landscape of researchers and practitioners working on different aspects of decision support for disaster risk reduction and response. To demonstrate and discuss the...

For the integration of national tsunami warning systems to large scale, ocean-wide warning infrastructures a specific protocol has been developed enabling system communication in a system-of-system environment. The proposed communication model incorporates requirements of UNESCO Intergovernmental Oceanic Commission tsunami programme to interlink national tsunami early warning systems. The model...

Early warning system (EWS) is a technology to mitigate risk is used to disseminate timely information. Then knowledge management system (KMS) is used to support for decision facilitation will integrate with EWS to disseminate timely information with proactive early warning. Issues on timeliness for timely reporting and decision facilitation are regarded as main challenge for mitigation of risk....

On March 11, 2011 an unusually strong earthquake, now called the Tohoku earthquake, occurred off the north-eastern coast of Japan's main island, Honshu. While the earthquake caused some destruction, the ensuing tsunami about three quarters of an hour later largely destroyed numbers of towns and devasted cities such as Sendai. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eqarchives/poster/2011/2011031...

The construction of large-scale wind farms results in a dramatic increase of wind turbine (WT) faults. The failure mode is also becoming increasingly complex. This study proposes a new model for early warning and diagnosis of WT faults to solve the problem of Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, given that the traditional threshold method cannot provide timely warning. Firs...

OBJECTIVE To establish a conceptual model of automatic early warning of infectious diseases based on internet reporting surveillance system, with a view to realizing an automated warning system on a daily basis and timely identifying potential outbreaks of infectious diseases. METHODS The statistic conceptual model was established using historic surveillance data with movable percentile metho...
