You are invited to the: CSE481K Designing Technology for Low-Resource Settings (the ICTD Capstone) POSTER AND DEMO SESSION Monday, June 9, noon-1:30 in the CSE Atrium Each winter and spring, students design and prototype technology solutions to problems motivated by issues encountered in low-resource settings. This year four groups worked on projects related to vaccine cold chain management: *DashTricks: Tablet for District Manager - Tanzania * DashTricks is an Android tablet application that provides district immunization managers in Tanzania with a dashboard for monitoring the performance of key immunization indicators in health facilities in their districts. Our project aims to give district managers a sense of ownership over their data to help them realize problems and make better vaccine management decisions intuitively and correctly. *IcePAK: Tablet for National Manager - Pakistan * IcePAK is a mobile application focused on vaccine cold chain management in Pakistan. It's goal is to integrate large amounts of data into easily consumable forms, enabling decision makers and managers to allocate resources effectively. High visibility of problem areas, and automated allocation recommendations, allows these at risk locations to recognized early and dealt with efficiently. *More Practice: Training App for Laos * We are developing a tablet-based training application that will be used to train health workers in Laos. The initial purpose of the application is to train workers on how to use an SMS-based vaccine stock reporting system, but it will be used for other training in the future. Some of the challenges this group has faced: designing for potentially non-technical users, creating an extensible application for future training needs, and simplifying the application update and synchronization process. * **SMS Immunization Manager ** *** The SMS Immunization Manager (SIM) is an easy-to-install and easy-to-customize system that allows community health workers to report information about the vaccine cold chain (such as fridge temperature and condition) by SMS rather than paper forms. SIM's main features include robust SMS-based operations that correctly handle even poorly-formatted messages and a moderation web application for administrators to review the system's operation. The system will be deployed in Laos in the coming months and possibly to other countries after. Join us on Monday, June 9th, from noon - 1:30 in the CSE Atrium to get a hands-on demo and discuss the projects with the students around their posters. Hope to see you all there on Monday.
