The rate of growth of mobile devices has been increasing at a very high pace. Mobile devices have made substantial contributions in managing emergency situations. Owing to the mobility of mobile devices, cloudlets, and their intermittent connectivity, it may become very difficult to handle emergency situations. To address this problem, a transmission model is proposed for mobile cloudlet systems, where a mobile device is used to designate a cloudlet by using the Borda scores Method and the mobile device can offload a part of its application to this cloudlet. The simulation results demonstrated that the proposed work makes a significant comtribution toward alleviating the problems associated with emergency situations.展开更多

The prognoses, two scores to predict the corresponding prediction index of sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value for the prognosis,the negative predictive value and the ROC curve for predicting the prognosis were analyzed for all patients.Results： In the prediction of the risk of mortality, the MEWS system had a high resolution. The MEWS area under the ROC curve was 0.93. The area under the ROC curve for the APACHE score was 0.79, and the difference was statistically significant（Z =4.348, P 〈 0.01）.Conclusions： Both the MEWS and APACHE Ⅱ systems can be used to determine the severity of emergency patients and have a certain predictive value for the patient＇s mortality risk. However, the MEWS system is simple and quick to operate, making it a useful supplement for APACHE Ⅱ score.展开更多
