Application of an Event-trigger-rule System to Agricultural Homeland Security
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper discusses the detection and management of a soybean rust outbreak in the context of agricultural homeland security. An Event-Trigger-Rule system is used for event registration, filtering and notification, and for process coordination and enforcement of agencies’ policies, constraints, regulations and data integrity/security/privacy. A ‘Response and Action Plan’ for combating the disease proposed by one of the 12 member states of the Southern Plant Diagnostic Network is used in a prototype implementation to demonstrate the utility of the system.
