TL;DR: The four central approaches to computer simulation modeling are described (Monte Carlo simulation, system dynamics modeling, discrete-event simulation, and agent-based simulation), along with problems amenable to their use and relevant examples to emergency care.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding older adults' perceptions of and attitudes towards exergames
Laura H. Barg-Walkow,Christina N. Harrington,Tracy L. Mitzner,Jordan Q. Hartley,Wendy A. Rogers +4 more
TL;DR: Older adults were open to adopting exergames, which could provide opportunities to increase physical activity, but designers must address the perceived challenges of using these systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling task scheduling in complex healthcare environments: Identifying relevant factors
TL;DR: Understanding how emergency physicians make multiple task scheduling decisions will advance theories and models, such as STOM, which can then be implemented to improve scheduling behaviors in complex healthcare environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
