Disaster Mitigation Using Interface Adaptation to Emotions: a Targeted Literature Review

The study focuses on problems of disaster mitigation information in football matches and the implications to audiences’ safety. The study uses study case method. The data collection is performed using in-depth interview, observation, and literature review; and the informant selection applies purposive sampling or criterion-based selection. Informants picked are fans of PSIM Yogyakarta, Persiba Bantul, and Persebaya Surabaya who experienced disasters in the stadiums. The study demonstrates, based on fans experiences, that various factors are responsible for outbreaks in football matches, namely the absence of information on disaster mitigation, the unprofessionalism of the organizers and securities in managing possible disasters, the insufficiency of the stadium architecture to deal with disasters, and the inadequacy of medical facilities in emergencies. The way forwards which are proposed is that, firstly, stadium construction should be designed by heeding disaster mitigation consideration for the sake of individuals’ well-being in the stadium. Moreover, the organizers, including the securities, should be more professional in running the matches. Finally, appropriate facilities for preventing disasters should be provided.

Introduction: The occurrence of natural disasters in Indonesia from year to year continues to occur, with the progress of communication technology that is increasingly expected to be able to facilitate communication when a disaster occurs. Such as the use of balloon tethered technology that can function for disaster mitigation, with the use of balloon tethered that is tethered in areas that are at risk of disaster prone. Methods: The method used by the author was literature review. The database used by the author were Google Scholar, IEEE Xplore, GEOECO, EBSCOhost, Researchgate and the keywords were disaster mitigation, Tethered Balloon technology, Aerial Platform. Results: This tethered balloon technology consists of a combination of flying balloons, tethered, and payload, for the use of disaster mitigation and supports faster broadband communication networks to users before or during and after a disaster. The rescue team can work more effectively and efficiently with the help of this tethered balloon technology. Conclusion: Cross-sectoral collaboration involving various disciplines is needed for disaster mitigation management. The role of the government is very large for the availability of communication technology such as tethered balloons. Keywords: disaster mitigation; tethered balloon; platform ABSTRAK Pendahuluan: Kejadian bencana alam di Indonesia dari tahun ke tahun terus terjadi, dengan adanya kemajuan teknologi komunikasi yang semakin berkembang diharapkan dapat memudahkan komunikasi saat terjadi bencana. Seperti pada penggunaan teknologi balon tethered yang dapat berfungsi untuk mitigasi bencana, dengan penggunaan balon tethered yang ditambatkan di daerah yang beresiko rawan bencana. Metode: Metode yang digunakan penulis adalah literature review. Database yang digunakan penulis adalah Google Scholar, IEEE Xplore, GEOECO, EBSCOhost, Researchgate dengan mitigasi bencana, tehnologi Tethered Balloon, Aerial Platform. Hasil: Teknologi balon tethered terdiri atas gabungan balon terbang, tethered, dan payload, untuk penggunaan mitigasi bencana dan mendukung jaringan komunikasi broadband yang lebih cepat kepada pengguna sebelum atau selama dan sesudah bencana. Tim penyelamat dapat bekerja lebih efektif dan efisien dengan bantuan teknologi balon tethered ini. Kesimpulan: kerjasama lintas sektoral yang melibatkan berbagai disiplin ilmu dibutuhkan untuk manajemen mitigasi bencana. Peranan pemerintah sangat besar untuk ketersediaan teknologi komunikasi seperti balon tethered ini. Kata kunci: mitigasi bencana; tethered balloon; platform

And Training

Computerized auditory training (CAT) is a convenient, low-cost approach to improving communication of individuals with hearing loss or other communicative disorders. A number of CAT programs are being marketed to patients and audiologists. The present literature review is an examination of evidence for the effectiveness of CAT in improving speech perception in adults with hearing impairments. Six current CAT programs, used in 9 published studies, were reviewed. In all 9 studies, some benefit of CAT for speech perception was demonstrated. Although these results are encouraging, the overall quality of available evidence remains low, and many programs currently on the market have not yet been evaluated. Thus, caution is needed when selecting CAT programs for specific patients. It is hoped that future researchers will (a) examine a greater number of CAT programs using more rigorous experimental designs, (b) determine which program features and training regimens are most effective, and (c) indicate which patients may benefit from CAT the most.
