Project Summary: The Session Long Project will involve developing a disaster management program for a specific country that will include hazard analysis, prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery plans.

Epidemiology of Disasters

Respond to the following:

Select a country for your Session Long Project. Describe the sectors within your country that would be most vulnerable to your selected disaster. NOTE: Data on your Countrys disasters can be accessed from EM-DAT Disaster Database link in the Background reading.
Complete a Hazard Analysis Table for your selected country (as described below). From your results, select a high-priority disaster for the remainder of your Session Long Project.

Column 1Disaster: List the disasters of the past 30 years in the Hazard Analysis Table. See the EM-DAT country profile
Column 2Frequency: Rank the disasters in terms of frequency in the past 30 years (i.e., most frequent to least frequent). Use a numerical scale between 1 and 4, with 1 referring to the most frequent disaster and 4 referring to the least frequent disaster.
Column 3Killed: Rank the disasters in terms of average number of deaths per disaster in the past 30 years. Use a scale between 1 and 4, with 1 referring to the highest number of deaths per disaster and 4 referring to the lowest number of deaths per disaster.
Column 4Affected: Rank the disasters in terms of average number of people affected per disaster in the past 30 years. Use a scale between 1 and 4, with 1 referring to the highest number affected per disaster and 4 referring to the lowest number affected per disaster.
Column 5Cost: Rank the disasters in terms of average cost per disaster in the past 30 years. Use a scale between 1 and 4, with 1 referring to the highest cost per disaster and 4 referring to the lowest cost per disaster.
Column 6Advance Warning: Rank the disasters in terms of expected warning time as follows: 1) no warning; 2) from 1 hour to 24 hours’ warning; and, 3) more than 24 hours’ warning.
Column 7Priority: As a disaster manager for this country, how would you rank these disasters in terms of priority? Using the information in the table, rank the disasters in terms of priority, with 1 being the highest priority. Provide a brief justification for your priority rating.

Alice Programming Assignment 3

(Make sure to have Alice software)

The scene below shows a world with 6 people that speak different languages and are standing around a globe.

These languages could include English, Turkish, Spanish, French, Irish and Italian. You can use other languages if you choose. Create an animation where any 2 people in the scene move closer to the globe as they say hello in their own language. Then they should turn around the globe a half revolution (review as seen by method).

Each person should then change his/her position to where the other person was standing. Your code should use just one method named greeting. This method will have 4 parameters, 2 for the people, and 2 for the foreign words.

In my First Method, you should call the greeting method 3 times.
