Building Fire Emergency Detection and Response Using Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) provide a low cost solution with respect to maintenance and installation and in particular, building refurbishment and retrofitting are easily accomplished via wireless technologies. Fire emergency detection and response for building environments is a novel application area for the deployment of wireless sensor networks. In such a critical environment, timely dat...

متن کاملTransacting Expertise in Emergency Management and Response
In this paper we extend transactive memory systems (TMS) theory to develop an understanding of the distributed coordination of expertise in high-reliability organizations. We illustrate our conceptual developments in a study of emergency management and response in Greece. We focus on the interaction between operators/dispatchers, ambulance crew, and specialist doctors, including the information...
متن کاملAdaptive and resilient systems for emergency response
Events of recent years have brought to light the difficulties involved in responding to major emergencies, particularly with respect to the on-site coordination of the many responding agencies. This paper presents an overview of the work being conducted by a team within National ICT Australia (NICTA) on rapidly deployable, resilient and adaptive networks and applications for emergency response....
متن کاملFactors Influencing Failure Emergency Evacuation in Work Environments during Fire
One of the necessary measures of saving human life in emergency situations, such as fires, is the safe and swift evacuation of people. The prerequisites for this are to anticipate, identify, and eliminate factors preventing people from leaving buildings in a timely and safe manner while moving them to a safe place [1]. The occurrence of errors caused by engineering, design, human, and psycholog...
