INTRODUCTION Incident reporting is widely recognised as an important method for improving safety in healthcare, and many countries have established their own incident reporting systems. However, the actual value of these systems is increasingly subject to debate. Reporting systems, both local and national, are over...

Definition Disaster recovery. Disaster recovery has three distinct but interrelated meanings. First, it is a goal that involves the restoration of normal community activities that were disrupted by disaster impacts – in most people’s minds, exactly as they were before the disaster struck. Second, it is a phase in the emergency management cycle that begins with stabilization of the disaster cond...

Since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, efforts to enhance risk management have taken on increased importance both at the national and state levels. Most current incident response systems do not consider risk as part of the decision making scenario. To effectively mitigate multi-incident coordinated terrorist threats, it is important to consider risk in incident management systems. Base...

This paper describes the results of the exploratory process mining efforts on the incident management process event log provided by Volvo IT Belgium. Specific areas of interest provided by the process owner are analyzed as well as some additional areas of interest that qualified for further investigation based on the information provided. Interesting results include uncovering specific support ...

Security incident management is one of the critical areas that offers valuable information to security experts, but still lacks much development. Currently, several security incident database models have been proposed and used. The discrepancies of such databases entail that worldwide incident information is stored in different formats and places and, so, do not provide any means for Computer S...

the theoretical calculation of the energies of projectile like fragments (plfs) using the heavy-ion reactions between 76ge and 198pt are reported in this article. the incident beam energy was 635 mev. the calculated values of plfs are compared with the previous experimental results and it is shown that the theoretical calculations of plfs are consistent with the experimental values. the elastic...
