Nuclear Emergency

AbstractWe present the architecture of the new ABR-KFUE decision-support system for nuclear emergency management used in Germany. Such systems assist decision makers in taking countermeasures in case of releases of radioactive materials into the environment. The specificity of these systems is that they use simulation software in a safety-critical application context. The new architecture of the system thus aims at fulfilling non-functional requirements for improved reliability, performance, availability, and maintainability. The proposed solutions are evaluated using a stimulus/response analysis.

Severity Of The Disease

Abstract:The management of patients with cancer involves the administration of complex treatment protocols with frequent monitoring of the effects of treatment on the malignant disease as well as on the general health of the patient. The number and wide variety of protocols used in treatment trials, and the amount of clinical data generated suggest the need for computer-based support. The toxicity of many of the treatments used and the severity of the disease itself underline the safety-critical nature of all decisions made by oncologists, the physicians and surgeons who treat cancer patients. This paper presents recent work on the analysis of safety issues arising from the design and implementation of a protoype decision-support system for oncologists. It illustrates the benefits of combining both informal and formal approaches to the analysis and representation of safety, firmly based on a thorough and detailed study of the domain in cooperation with oncologists, pharmacists and medical informaticians.
