چکیده

In this paper, we present the development and validation of a Disaster Management Metamodel, a language that we develop specific for describing disaster management domain, as a foundational component to create a decision support system to unify, facilitate and expedite access to disaster management expertise. The metamodel which consists of four views based on disaster management phases including Mitigation, Preparedness, Response and Recovery-phase classes is developed by using seven (7) steps of metamodel creation process. To check the expressiveness and the completeness aspect of the metamodel, we validate this representational metamodel by analysing a validation over ten well-known disaster management metamodels which are chosen based on a Model Importance Factor criteria. The paper presents the synthesis process, the resulting metamodel and its validation.

Development and validation of a Disaster Management Metamodel (DMM)

Disaster Management (DM) is a diffused area of knowledge. It has many complex features interconnecting the physical and the social views of the world. Many international and national bodies create knowledge models to allow knowledge sharing and effective DM activities. But these are often narrow in focus and deal with specified disaster types. We analyze thirty such models to uncover that many ...

Model-driven disaster management

Disaster management (DM) is a challenging domain to model because of the variety of dynamic characteristics attached to the domain. Metamodeling is a model-driven approach that describes how semantic domain models can be built into an artifact called a Metamodel. By collecting all the domain concepts and partitioning the domain problems into sub-domain-problems, a metamodel can produce a domain...

Using rule overriding to improve reusability and understandability of Dynamic Meta Modeling specifications

Dynamic Meta Modeling (DMM) is a visual semantics specification technique targeted at languages based on a metamodel. A DMM specification consists of a runtime metamodel and operational rules which describe how instances of the runtime metamodel change over time. A known deficiency of the DMM approach is that it does not support the refinement of a DMM specification, e.g., in the case of defini...
