The document proposes a tool called RingAround to help manage future Ebola outbreaks. RingAround consists of cheap Bluetooth-enabled mood rings that can detect the wearer's temperature. If a fever is detected, the ring would notify the wearer's phone which would automatically send text messages to the wearer's contacts and local CDC to alert them and help isolate the potentially infected person. The rings would also continuously send health updates to the CDC to help manage the person's condition and send advice. The tool aims to leverage the widespread mobile phone and Bluetooth usage in West Africa to help curb the spread of Ebola.

Mobile phones have become ubiquitous since their invention in the 1940s, originating from earlier telegraph and telephone technologies. While mobile phones started as a novelty, they are now considered a necessity that connects people around the world. However, some health organizations have raised concerns that radiation from mobile phones may possibly cause brain cancer, though more research is still needed. There are tips one can follow like using headsets or limiting phone use to reduce potential radiation exposure from mobile phones. Overall, mobile phones have greatly benefited society but also introduce new issues around responsible usage and potential health risks.

This document discusses cell phone usage and addiction. It notes that while cell phones were originally intended as a convenience, people have become increasingly dependent on them. A new disorder called "nomophobia" has emerged, where people experience anxiety when not near their phones. Approximately two thirds of the world's population is estimated to be prone to this psychological addiction to cell phones. The document advocates reducing cell phone usage by at least half and being more mindful about whether new applications and phone upgrades are necessary or just marketing influences.

Topic: Ebola under Epidemiology
This topic interests me to a great extent because Ebola has been a deadly menace, ravaging the African continent and the world in general. According to World Health Organization (2015) the virus has so far claimed the lives of approximately 10,000 people. In addition, there is no single licensed vaccine to protect people against the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) even though there are various vaccines which are currently in development through clinical trials. New Ebola cases are being reported each and every day and unless something is done fast, the disease will continue to pose a threat to human life. It is therefore important to understand the various aspects of this lethal virus in order to continuously take proper precaution against it.
The Audience
The paper will target community members who do not have an in depth understanding of the Ebola Virus. It will help to dispel any existing myths and misconceptions relating to the illness. By doing this, the community members will also be able to understand the steps that are being taken by the government through agencies such as C.D.C to prevent and control against the Ebola virus by training medical responders as well as airport crew and workers. This will calm them down and hence avert the risk of a panic situation in the area; incase an individual from the community is suspected of being infected with the virus. Community engagement is the key to controlling outbreaks by applying a set of interventions such as contact tracing, social mobilization, proper lab practices and surveillance. It is therefore important to educate the community members adequately on all aspects of the virus in order to lessen casualty in case an outbreak occurs in the area.
Learning Objectives
This paper will sensitize individuals on the symptoms associated with Ebola. It will also equip the audience with measures that can be undertaken if they suspect a friend or a family member to be infected by the virus. In addition, the paper will explore various matters relating to the origin of the virus. This will enhance their knowledge of the topic. By doing this, the audience will be enlightened enough to pass the correct information to other people around them. Sensitizing community members about the Ebola virus will also ensure that they understand the severity of this outbreak and come up with ways that can be used to aid the worst hit countries.
Project Forum
The project will be in an article form characterized by captioned photos, graphs and charts to add depth to the topic.
Data Collection
I hope to collect data regarding the current Ebola situation in West Africa through interviews and polls. I will carry out an online interview with a friend who is currently volunteering to manage the Ebola Crisis in Sierra Leone. This will give me a firsthand impression of the Ebola situation in West Africa as well as shed light on the progress of Ebola medication within the region. I will also inq ...

“Saving lives at the click of a button…”
)SILVER ALERT
Name and Description
According to the United States Census, The largest segment of the population is the elderly, age 65 and older (2010 Census Shows 65 and Older Population Growing Faster Than Total U.S. Population, 2011). Of this segment 1 in 9 will have Alzheimer’s disease (2015 Alzheimer’s Statistics, n.d.). In some states, when an elderly individual wanders away from home and does not return as expected, law enforcement is contacted and a “Silver Alert” is issued to request the public’s assistance in locating the individual. This is how the name Silver Alert tracking device got its name. The device is designed to be worn by the vulnerable adult and when they do wander off unexpectedly, law enforcement can activate a radio signal that can be received by nearby patrol vehicles to facilitate a speedy return home. Also known as the
GPS for “people” Silver alert can be used virtually anywhere and everywhere with its easy to use capabilities. Silver alert identifies the need and is willing to go the extra mile in order to protect our loved ones.
“You cannot put a price on a life”
Value
The value is immense when it comes to silver alert. Today’s families are very busy with careers and raising children that often times makes it very difficult to keep track of elderly parents. These parents are often the ones who wander off unexpectedly and sometimes forget how to get back home. The Silver Alert tracking device is designed to give these families peace of mind that their loved ones can be found quickly, before any potential harm can befall them. In the event of missing persons, law enforcement and emergency first responders spend countless of hours with search and rescue. This system also benefits first responders who often spend many man-hours search for these persons. The radio beacon transmitted by the device allows first responders to quickly locate the person. There is also value to the wearer of the device knowing that if they become lost, someone can quickly find them and help them return home. “Rest assured you can count on Silver alert!” The value of Silver Alert simply is immense, it aids in the process of preserving life. Nothing is worse than losing contact with a loved one and being unaware of their condition, this can lead to feelings of helplessness and despair, our goal here at Silver Alert is to provide a firm foundation of confidence for families in time of need. For example, when our country underwent the horrific tragedy of 9/11 many families had no idea where their loved ones were for weeks and some even years! Can you imagine living with a sense of hope mixed with doubt every single day? Over 2,500 victims died in this horrific tragedy and each live mattered. A family deserves to know the status of their loved one and ...

Cellphone technology has both positive and negative impacts on health, behavior, and relationships. Regarding health, cellphone radiation can potentially cause issues like tumors, eye strain, and chronic pain from excessive use. Cellphones also spread germs if not cleaned regularly. On behavior and relationships, overreliance on cellphones can inhibit social and communication skills. Constant connectivity also makes separating work and personal life difficult. Excessive social media use allows people to say things without consequences and share private information widely. Children are especially vulnerable to health risks from radiation and behavioral issues from excessive screen time.

Impact of Cellphone Technology on Health
Introduction
The dynamics of communication has been influenced greatly by cell phone technology. Continuous advancements in technology have changed the usage patterns of the devices as well as how frequent it is used. The small computers make communication easy because a person can respond to someone else instantly. However, with all these benefits, the technology comes along with some negative impacts on the health of an individual or user of the device. Socially it affects interpersonal skills as well as health. This paper focuses on the impact of cell phone technology on health.
Cell phones depend on electromagnetic radiations to receive and transfer data. During data transmission, the device gives off harmful radiations, which affect human health. The radiations cannot be felt and when released, they penetrate the body affecting the DNA and structure of the human cell. (Borelli, 2013). Radiations are of different frequencies and wavelengths. Several diseases are induced by radiations such as infertility, hearing impairment, and brain tumors. Hearing impairment can result from loud disturbance. Tumors result when the tissues of the body grow abnormally. Cell phone radiations leads to the death of cells and during replacement by other cells tumors may develop. Some tend to be cancerous such as the malignant brain tumor while others are non-cancerous like the benign tumor.
Young children are at a greater risk than adults are because their skulls and neural systems are not fully developed. This increases the rate of absorption of the electromagnetic waves into their bodies. During the installation of the WLAN, a network is created through the use of a router and the connected devices communicate through the network. During data transmission, electromagnetic radiations are emitted and the presence of a child around may result in a major impact on the human physical structure of the child.
Cell phones not only carry important personal data but also germs that are harmful to the heath of a person. Most people who use cell phones tend to place them in different places where they may collect germs. A report from researches indicated that one in every six cell phones is contaminated with some sort of fecal matter. (Elsevier Health Sciences, 2011). This is probably because the owners of the phones do not wash their hands thoroughly with soaps after leaving the toilet. The bacteria found in some of the cell phones were the E. coli bacteria which is normally found in the fecal region. Ingestion of the bacteria leads to severe health problems such as diarrhea, vomiting, and fever. Dirty hands also has different kinds of bacteria which can contaminate the phone. Thus upon sharing the phone with another person, the bacteria may be transferred leading to health problems if the person fails to clean ...

Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Young Glory: Ebola
- 1. Young Glory October 2014 “Come up with a tool or service to help better manage future ebola outbreaks”
- 2. Ebola spreads through human-to-human transmission via direct contact, but is only contagious once the infected person starts showing symptoms.
- 3. 39.4 Fever is one of the rst symptoms to appear.
- 4. In order to keep Ebola from spreading, we need to make sure that people who show symptoms stay isolated.
- 5. How?
- 6. According to industry estimates, West Africa holds 188 million mobile subscribers.
- 7. Mobile does not necessarily mean smartphone but it does mean that a) a lot of people in West Africa are connected to the Internet, often via text messaging, and that b) a lot of people, especially younger generations, use Bluetooth to share and spread music.
- 8. It has even been said that “In much of West Africa, cell phones are used as all purpose multimedia device.”
- 9. In other words, people in West Africa are well familiar with text messaging and Bluetooth as ways to gather and share information.
- 10. Knowing this, we came up with a tool/toy that alerts people the minute someone they know starts showing Ebola symptoms.
- 12. It is a take on the well-known, universally loved mood ring, complete with built-in Bluetooth connection. These rings are very cheap to make, which makes mass production possible.
- 13. The temperature sensors sit on the inside of the ring, so that they are not altered by the sun or other heat sources, and the Bluetooth sensor runs like a ribbon around the entire ring.
- 14. We’ll hand out RingAround mood rings to everyone who wants one. (if you have kids, or have ever been a kid, you’ll know why this will be a success).
- 15. When the ring detects the bearer’s phone, it will connect to the Bluetooth.
- 16. If the wearer gets a fever, the ring will immediately notice the change in temperature and notify the phone.
- 17. The phone, in turn, will automatically send out text messages to all contacts in the phone book, and to the local CDC oce.
- 18. The text message will alert people to stay away from the wearer until it has been conrmed whether he or she has Ebola.
- 19. Thanks to the constant Bluetooth connection, the mood ring will continually send information to CDC about the person’s condition.
- 20. If the fever goes away, the phone will send out a new message letting the contacts know that it was a false alarm. If instead the fever rises, the CDC knows exactly where the person is, and they can also send back text messages with personalized suggestions and advice.
- 21. RingAround mood rings are cheap to make, instantly appealing, and ll a very specic purpose.
- 22. They use technology already available, make it easier for the CDC or other institutions to send targeted help, and always alert the people most susceptible to get infected — the friends of people who are already sick.
- 24.
