Few Internet security organizations provide comprehensive, detailed, and reliable quantitative metrics, especially in the international perspective across multiple countries, multiple years, and multiple categories. As common refrain to justify this situation, organizations ask why they should spend valuable time and resources collecting and standardizing data. This report aims to provide an en...

Emergency situations are characterized by their complexity and the heterogeneity of the available information. Emergency managers are frequently confronted with redundant or irrelevant information, causing the problem of information overload. Evidence of this problem was identified in an exploratory survey conducted in the Center for Integrated Command and Control of Rio de Janeiro (CICC-RJ). I...

With the increasing interconnection of computer networks and sophistication of cyber attacks, it is important to understand the dynamics of such situations, especially in regards to cyber international relations. The Explorations in Cyber International Relations (ECIR) Data Dashboard Project is an initiative to gather worldwide cybersecurity data publicly provided by nation-level Computer Emerg...

BACKGROUND For many healthcare decisions, multiple alternatives are available with different combinations of advantages and disadvantages across several important dimensions. The complexity of current healthcare decisions thus presents a significant barrier to informed decision making, a key element of patient-centered care.Interactive decision dashboards were developed to facilitate decision m...

PURPOSE This study aims to explore the biomechanical mechanism of lower limb injuries to the driver by establishing a finite element (FE) simulation model of collisions. METHODS First a minibus FE model was integrated with a seat belt system. Then it was used to rebuild two collisions together with the total human model for safety (THUMS) provided by Toyota Motor Corporation: a rear-end colli...

There is an emerging consensus in the scientific software community that progress in scientific research is dependent on the “quality and accessibility of software at all levels” [1]. This progress depends on embracing the best traditional—and emergent—practices in software engineering, especially agile practices that intersect with the more formal tradition of software engineering. As a first ...

Interactive data visualization is a transformational technique that can turn raw data into immersive insights extraction. In this study, an interactive dashboard that visualizes raw aggregated data is developed to identify energy usage patterns in an office building environment. The main goal is to highlight high consumptions patterns, estimate costs and savings, and recommend energy saving str...
