Crisis Response Planning : A Task

نویسنده

  • Melinda T. Gervasio
چکیده

The ability to respond eeectively and eeciently to crisis is an important objective in many problem-solving domains. In this paper, we identify three central elements of crisis: threat, urgency, and uncertainty. We deene the space of competent problem solvers for crisis response through a task analysis (Newell and Si-mon, 1972). Speciically, we bound the space of problem solvers by determining the features of problem spaces and search control strategies necessary to address the central elements of crisis. We also outline an evaluation method for problem solvers in crisis domains. The task analysis provides a framework for improving crisis response strategies as well as developing intelligent assistants for crisis response.

Automatic Generation of a Multi Agent System for Crisis Management by a Model Driven Approach

Considering the increasing occurrences of unexpected events and the need for pre-crisis planning in order to reduce risks and losses, modeling instant response environments is needed more than ever. Modeling may lead to more careful planning for crisis-response operations, such as team formation, task assignment, and doing the task by teams. A common challenge in this way is that the model shou...

Evaluating Computational Assistance for Crisis Response

In this paper we examine the behavior of a human-computer system for crisis response. As one instance of crisis management, we describe the task of responding to spills and fires involving hazardous materials. We then describe INCA, an intelligent assistant for planning and scheduling in this domain, and its relation to human users. We focus on INCA’s strategy of retrieving a case from a case l...

A two-stage mathematical model for evacuation planning and relief logistics in a response phase

Crises and natural disasters are always existed in human history, and continue to exist in the future; therefore, people are always affected by these natural disasters. Hence, evacuation planning after natural disasters (e.g., earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, fire, storms, warfare and nuclear explosions) is vital. Given that natural disasters cause irreparable financial loss and the loss of life ...

Case - Based Seeding for an Interactive Crisis Response

In this paper, we present an interactive, case-based approach to crisis response that provides users with the ability to rapidly develop good responses while allowing them to retain ultimate control over the decision-making process. We have implemented this approach in Inca, an INteractive Crisis Assistant for planning and scheduling in crisis domains. Inca relies on case-based methods to seed ...
