Hundreds of lives in India are lost each day due to the delayed medical response. In the present scenario, the victims completely rely on the passersby for almost every kind of medical help such as informing the hospital or ambulance. This project aims to automate the process of detecting and reporting accidents using accident detection kits in vehicles. The kit has a system on chip and various sensors which sense various parameters that change drastically during the occurrence of accidents such as the vibration levels, orientation of vehicles with respect to the ground. The accident is said to occur when these values cross the permissible threshold limit. As soon as this happens, the latitude and longitude of the accident spot is tracked using the GPS module present in the kit. The nearest hospital and police station is computed by the GPS module, which uses the latitude and longitude values as the input. The accident notifications are sent to the concerned hospital and police station over the web interface accordingly. The assignment of particular ambulance and the required traffic policemen to the accident cases is done using the web interface. The android application guides the ambulance driver as well as the policemen to the accident spot and also helps in the detailed registration of the accidents. The closest doctor facility and police headquarters is processed by the GPS module, which utilizes the scope and longitude esteems as the information. The accident warnings are sent to the concerned healing facility and police headquarters over the web interface as needs be. The task of specific rescue vehicle and policemen to the accident cases is finished utilizing the web interface. An intelligent analysis of the last five years' rich dataset uncovers the patterns followed by the accidents and gives valuable insights on how to deploy the existing resources such as ambulances and traffic-police efficiently. Various types of analysis are done to identify the cause-effect relationships and deal with this in a better way. Such technical solutions to the frequently occurring problems would result in saving many lives as well as making the cities safer and smarter.

Social media services make it possible for an increasing number of people to express their opinion publicly. In this context, large amounts of hateful comments are published daily. The PHARM project aims at monitoring and modeling hate speech against refugees and migrants in Greece, Italy, and Spain. In this direction, a web interface for the creation and the query of a multi-source database containing hate speech-related content is implemented and evaluated. The selected sources include Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook comments and posts, as well as comments and articles from a selected list of websites. The interface allows users to search in the existing database, scrape social media using keywords, annotate records through a dedicated platform and contribute new content to the database. Furthermore, the functionality for hate speech detection and sentiment analysis of texts is provided, making use of novel methods and machine learning models. The interface can be accessed online with a graphical user interface compatible with modern internet browsers. For the evaluation of the interface, a multifactor questionnaire was formulated, targeting to record the users’ opinions about the web interface and the corresponding functionality.

The mostly “creative” authoring process used to develop many Web applications during the last years has already proven unsuccessful to tackle, with its increasing complexity, both in terms of user and technical requirements. This fact has nurtured a mushrooming of proposals, most based on conceptual models, that aim at facilitating the development, maintenance and assessment of Web applications, thus improving the reliability of the Web development process. In this chapter, we will show how traditional software engineering approaches can be extended to deal with the Web idiosyncrasy, taking advantage of proven successful notation and techniques for common tasks, while adding models and constructs needed to capture the nuances of the Web environment. In this context, our proposal, the Object-Oriented Hypermedia (OO-H) Method, developed at University of Alicante, provides a set of new views that extend UML to provide a Web interface model. A code generation process is able to, departing from such diagrams and their associated tagged values, generate a Web interface capable of connecting to underlying business modules.

Background Interactive response technologies are used in clinical trials to provide services such as automated randomization and medication logistics management. The objective of this article is to investigate the usage of telephone (Interactive Voice Response) and web (Interactive Web Response) interfaces of interactive response technologies at clinical investigator sites in clinical trials, to obtain information about the preferences of interactive response technology end users between the telephone and web interfaces, and to explore the relevance of the telephone interface in this setting. Methods The data consist of an online survey conducted in spring 2016 with clinical investigators, study nurses, and pharmacists in 13 countries. Results Ninety-eight percent of survey respondents preferred the web interface over the telephone interface, the most important reason being superior usability. However, the respondents indicated the usability of interactive response technology interfaces is not optimal, and lack of integration and consistency across systems is common. A vast majority of interactive response technology end users at clinical sites prefer to use the web interface over the telephone interface, but most also feel there would need to be a back-up system. Conclusions Based on the results, it would be beneficial to improve the usability of the interactive response technology interfaces, and to increase consistency across systems from the current level. Support to and training of the users, as well as clarifying the responsibilities between sites and the sponsor should also be a focal point. Study sponsors should explore with interactive response technology service providers how removing the telephone interface would impact future studies, and whether there could be a more efficient means to achieve a reliable back-up to the web interface instead of a dedicated telephone interface.

Abstract Background The MG-RAST API provides search capabilities and delivers organism and function data as well as raw or annotated sequence data via the web interface and its RESTful API. For casual users, however, RESTful APIs are hard to learn and work with. Results We created the graphical MG-RAST API explorer to help researchers more easily build and export API queries; understand the data abstractions and indices available in MG-RAST; and use the results presented in-browser for exploration, development, and debugging. Conclusions The API explorer lowers the barrier to entry for occasional or first-time MG-RAST API users.
