This paper studies the management of information and knowledge flows for decisionsupport in crisis situations. Especially, the paper addresses the information needs of strategic level decision-makers in military organizations. The authors present the results of an empirical study carried out in Finland last year. The results contain general requirements and definition of the information content...

User participation seems especially important in the development of collaborative work systems where the technology is used by a work group to coordinate their joint activities. Users rather than systems analysts are often the best source of information on how they will use information tec nology to collaborate. It is almost an axiom of systems development that end users should participate in a...

Eco-hydraulic models are wide extended tools to assess physical habitat suitability on aquatic environments. Currently, the application of these is limited short river stretches and steady flow simulations. However, this limitation can be overcome with a high-performance computing technique: graphics processing unit (GPU) computing. R-Iber GPU-based hydrodynamic code parallelised in CUDA Fortra...

One of the key factors in the daily work in emergency medical dispatch incident monitoring is ensuring that they have enough of the right type of information when making decisions and cooperating with other authorities. Finding out the critical information needed and the flow of information during multi-authority missions when receiving and sharing information, enables to obtain and receive sit...

The main objective of this study was to quantify the impacts of the run of river (ROR) scheme on the instream habitat and macroinvertebrate community. We sampled the macroinvertebrate assemblages and collected the habitat variables above and below an ROR hydropower plant: Aotou plant in the Hailang River, China. The effects of the ROR scheme on habitat conditions were examined using regulation-...
