Healthcare Authority decides to create ​Healthcare Collaboration ​network involving data source organizations ​(like hospitals, physicians) and data review organizations ​(like government agencies, health insurers).

 +==== Experimental Procedure ==== 
 +eRISE 2011 was conducted in three main phases: {{ :​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​photos:​training.jpeg?​250|}} 
 +  * **Training Phase** on May 13, 2011 (at Dauphine Paris University),​ where participants attended tutorials on the methods under evaluation ​and on the HCN case. 
 +  * **Application Phases** on May 14-27, 2011 (with face-to-face session on May 26-27 at Dauphine Paris University) where participants applied the methods to analyse security issues ​of the HCN case. 
 +  * **Evaluation Phase**, where participants evaluated the methods through focused group interviews while method designers evaluated the final reports. {{ :​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​photos:​application03.jpeg?​250|}} The goal is to assess the correctness ​of the methods application and the quality of the security requirements identified by the participants.  
 +      -  **Two Post-it session** were conducted for each method, each involving six participants,​ apart from one session, which had 7 participantsEach participant was asked to produce a total 20 post-its: 5 each one containing positive aspects about the method, 5 each one containing negative aspects about the method, 5 containing positive aspects about the competition,​ and 5 reporting negative aspects about the competition. All these post-it notes contributed to two Post-it clouds, one about the method and one about the competition,​ of 120 post-its per method (130 for one of the method), for a total of 490 notes. {{ :​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​photos:​post_discussion.jpeg?​250|}} 
 +      - **Two focus group discussions** were conducted for each method, each involving ​six participants, ​(apart from one discussionwhich had 7 participants), the Method Designer ​and one member of the Organizing Team, which also served as moderator. Focus groups had a duration of 90 minutes each and yielded a total of 540 minutes of audio and video recordings. ​  
 +==== Data Collection and Analysis ==== 
 +We have collected different kinds of data
 +  * **Questionnaires** include questions on subjects'​ knowledge of IT securityrisk assessment, and requirements engineering and their evaluation of the methods'​ aspects. Questionnaires contained a combination of open questions and list of adjectives, rated by participants through 7-points Likert scales. The participants were administered **four questionnaires** during the execution of the eRISE 2011:  {{ :​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​photos:​artifact.jpeg?​250|}} 
 +    * **Q1** was administered before the Training phase and aimed at collecting participant’s level of awareness on Information Security.({{:​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​questionnaires:​q1-information_security_awareness.pdf|Q1}}). 
 +    * **Q2** was administered to participants after the Training phase and aimed at collecting participants’ first impression about the method ({{:​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​questionnaires:​q2-erise_method_questionnaire.pdf|Q2}}). 
 +    * **Q3** was administered at the end of remote group collaboration and aimed at collecting participants’ opinion about the method when applied ​in a condition of remote group collaboration. This was also a mid-term overall evaluation of the method ({{:​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​questionnaires:​q3-erise_method_questionnaire.pdf|Q3}}). ​  
 +    * **Q4** was administered at the end of the Application phase, after the sessions of face-to-face group work sessions. This questionnaire aimed at collecting final evaluation by participants about the method ({{:​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​questionnaires:​q4-erise_method_questionnaire.pdf|Q4}}). {{ :​research_activities:​erise:​erise_2011:​photos:​postit_notes.jpeg?​250|}} 
 +  * **Audio/​Video Recordings* ** capture the application of the methods by subjects and the focus groups interviews 
 +  * **Post-it Notes* ** list positive and negative aspects about the methods ​and the study itself; 
 +  * **Focus Group Transcripts* ** report the discussion with method designers a number ​of topics related to the method, its application on the given scenario and the process of evaluation. 
 +  * **Group Presentations* ** by participants summarize the results of method'​s application;​ 
 +  * **Final Reports* ** describe in detail how participants have identified the security requirements following the method.

-=== HCN: Monitoring Adverse Drug Event ===+=== Data Analysis ​=== 
  
-Healthcare Collaboration Network (HCN) needs to monitor Adverse Drug Event at the CityVille +Questionnaires have been analyzed using //​statistical analysis//. For post-it notes we have used //affinity analysis// in order to group similar feedback on positive and negative aspects of the methods. The transcripts of the focus groups discussions have been analyzed using //coding//, a content analysis technique used in grounded theory. Coding helped us to discover text patterns that are relevant to what makes methods effective in identifying security requirements ​and why.
