This document summarizes the Sahana Taiwan organization and its work developing open source disaster management software. It discusses the Python rewrite of the original PHP-based software using the Web2Py framework. The rewrite aims to improve maintainability, integration of mapping and messaging features, and a more interactive web interface. The document also describes Sahana's use in response to the 2010 Haiti earthquake and how the software and community have continued to evolve and engage volunteers.

What’s New ?

A Python based rewrite using
MVC frameworks and highly-
interactive Web 2.0 UIs.

Sahana
Software Foundation
Agasti Eden
(PHP) (Python)
LGPLv3 MIT

Why a Rewrite ?
? The old code is hard to maintain and
hard to integrate GIS and Messaging
? Using a framework allows to focus
on the user-facing application.
? An experimental branch within the
main project rather than a fork.

Python Advantages
? 需求變異大 ? Agile互動開發方式
? 開發時程短 ? Web2Py快速開發
? 多樣資訊整合 ? 豐富函式庫支援
? 開發資源有限 ? 社群成長及投入
? 回應大量網頁要求 ? 搭配雲端服務

Rapidly-changing
Requirements
? Missing Person Registry
? Mapping
? Organization Registry
? Hospital Management
? Volunteer Registry
? WFP: Food Request Portal

Mapping
? High-resolution Satellite Imagery
(available 26 hrs)
? OpenStreetMap volunteers used this
& old printed maps to quickly cover
Port-au-Prince

? These were made available as
basemaps on handheld GPS

Deployment Perspective
? Select Modules according to the Response
and Relief Needs
? Leverage the Experts and Volunteers
– GPS / GIS / SMS / PFIF / Crowdsourcing
? Early Deployment helps Trust Relationship
established

Diazo: Bridging Designers and ProgrammersTsungWei Hu

This document introduces Diazo, an open source theme engine for bridging web designers and developers. It discusses how Diazo works by using XML rules and XSLT to transform unthemed HTML content into themed content. It provides examples of common rules for replacing elements, including and dropping content, and merging navigation. Diazo allows maintaining design templates separately from dynamic content and deploying transformed content through an XSLT processor. The conclusion recommends starting with example codes, using the editor for common tasks, and keeping organizational themes consistent.

ADV 狠狠撸s: Trends in Streaming Analytics and Message-oriented MiddlewareDATAVERSITY

Streaming and real-time data has high business value, but that value can rapidly decay if not processed quickly. If the value of the data is not realized in a certain window of time, its value is lost and the decision or action that was needed as a result never occurs. Streaming data – whether from sensors, devices, applications, or events – needs special attention because a sudden price change, a critical threshold met, a sensor reading changing rapidly, or a blip in a log file can all be of immense value, but only if the alert is in time.
