Systematizing Environmental Indicators and Indices

Urban health indicators and indices—current status

Though numbers alone may be insufficient to capture the nuances of population health, they provide a common language of appraisal and furnish clear evidence of disparities and inequalities. Over the past 30 years, facilitated by high speed computing and electronics, considerable investment has been made in the collection and analysis of urban health indicators, environmental indicators, and met...

Systematizing medical alerts

The current Swedish regulations for medical alerts in health records were designed for paper records. Suggestions for computerized systems are now being investigated. A proposed model using three alert categories, graphically represented using three directions, probably combined with three severity levels is presented here. Up represents hypersensitivities, left/back represents alerting diagnos...

Systematizing requirements elicitation technique selection

Context: This research deals with requirements elicitation technique selection for software product requirements and the overselection of open interviews. Objectives: This paper proposes and validates a framework to help requirements engineers select the most adequate elicitation techniques at any time. Method: We have explored both the existing underlying theory and the results of empirical re...

Systematizing “Accountability” in Computer Science

We provide a systematization of approaches to accountability that have been taken in computer-science research. Toward this end, we categorize these approaches along the axes of time, information, and action; within each of these axes, we identify multiple questions of interest. Different researchers have (explicitly or implicitly) used “accountability” to mean different things. Our systematiza...
