The First Annual Workshop on Pervasive Networks for Emergency Management
(In conjunction with IEEE PerCom 2010)
http://san.ee.ic.ac.uk/pernem2010/
Mannheim, Germany, March 29 - April 2, 2010
EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE Oct. 20, 2009
Scope
-----
The events that took place on 11 September 2001 have brought to the
forefront the unique challenges that occur during a crisis, which
require effective sensing, communications and decision making with
demanding time constraints in highly dynamic environments. Pervasive
systems address these requirements by providing decision support to
rescuers and evacuees, guaranteeing communications and collecting
information that is vital for planning and organising the emergency
operation. This workshop focuses on pervasive networked sensing and
decision making, both wired and wireless, geared towards emergency
management. PerNEM 2010 addresses leading edge research in these areas
through the use of sensing, communication, decision support,
simulation tools and modelling methods with focus on system design,
optimisation and experimental evaluation.
Topics
-------
PerNEM will bring together contributions which include but are not
limited to the following areas:
* Networked sensors for emergency management
* Pervasive middleware for emergency management
* Decentralised algorithms for pervasive systems
* Self-aware and self- adaptive network design and evaluation
* Network self-healing, security and self-defence
* Wireless Networks for emergency support
* Mobile sensors for disaster monitoring
* Networked robotics for wireless communications
* Pervasive emergency management systems
* QoS in critical communications
