Disease Surveillance $140 An up-to-date and comprehensive treatment of biosurveillance techniques With the worldwide awareness of bioterrorism and drug-resistant infectious diseases, the need for surveillance systems to accurately detect emerging epidemicsis essential for maintaining global safety. Responding to these issues, Disease Surveillance brings together fifteen eminent researchers in the fields of medicine, epidemiology, biostatistics, and medical informatics to define the necessary elements of an effective disease surveillance program, including research, development, implementation, and operations. The surveillance systems and techniques presented in the text are designed to best utilize modern technology, manage emerging public health threats, and adapt to environmental changes. Following a historical overview detailing the need for disease surveillance systems, the text is divided into the following three parts: Part One sets forth the informatics knowledge needed to implement a disease surveillance system, including a discussion of data sources currently used in syndromic surveillance systems. Part Two provides case studies of modern disease surveillance systems, including cases that highlight implementation and operational difficulties as well as the successes experienced by health departments in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. Part Three addresses practical issues concerning the evaluation of disease surveillance systems and the education of future informatics and disease surveillance practitioners. It also assesses how future technology will shape the field of disease surveillance. This book’s multidisciplinary approach is ideal for public health professionals who need to understand all the facets within a disease surveillance program and implement the technology needed to support surveillance activities. An outline of the components needed for a successful disease surveillance system combined with extensive use of case studies makes this book well-suited as a textbook for public health informatics courses |

Automated Multi-Camera Surveillance $134 The deployment of surveillance systems has captured the interest of both the research and the industrial worlds in recent years. The aim of this effort is to increase security and safety in several application domains such as national security, home and bank safety, traffic monitoring and navigation, tourism, and military applications. The video surveillance systems currently in use share one feature: A human operator must monitor them at all times, thus limiting the number of cameras and the area under surveillance and increasing cost. A more advantageous system would have continuous active warning capabilities, able to alert security officials during or even before the happening of a crime. Existing automated surveillance systems can be classified into categories according to: The environment they are primarily designed to observe; The number of sensors that the automated surveillance system can handle; The mobility of sensor. The primary concern of this book is surveillance in an outdoor urban setting, where it is not possible for a single camera to observe the complete area of interest. Multiple cameras are required to observe such large environments. This book discusses and proposes techniques for development of an automated multi-camera surveillance system for outdoor environments, while identifying the important issues that a system needs to cope with in realistic surveillance scenarios. The goal of the research presented in this book is to build systems that can deal effectively with these realistic surveillance needs. |

Wearing Safety Boots Ensures A Fantastic Fire Service
Very few items of equipment are as important as the firefighter’s safety boots. Whilst safety boots can protect firefighters to a very high level indeed, they are also superb at giving additional grip and foot support.
One of the main protection benefits of safety boots to firefighters is that they are able to resist flames. Safety boot laces are often treated especially to help prevent burns and singes that might otherwise occur, on top of all over boot flame protection. Fireproof socks used with proper safety boots makes for a very protective and fire resistant solution for professional firefighters.
It goes without saying that firefighters who use the best protective safety boots are going to be in a better position to help those in danger as their roles require. Without the required safety boots, firefighters could find themselves in personal danger from fire as well as not being able to help those people in danger that they should.
Overall safety is improved by firefighters wearing safety boots in addition to the fire retardant aspect to the boots. Reinforced toes, either from steel or some kind of composite material can help prevent firefighters from getting crushed toes. Preventing the foot from being pierced by sharp objects from underneath the boot can also be achieved by using reinforced soles. Preventing damage from toxic chemicals is also a high priority when it comes to ensuring that firefighters feet are fully protected in what are often extremely dangerous situations.
In conclusion, without safety boots, firefighters are unable to give the very best that their training should ensure. By making certain that the necessary safety boots are worn in accordance with safety regulations, firefighters can feel safe in the knowledge that they will be able to play an important part in fire rescues.
