A simulation model was developed to predict with a certain degree of probability the optimal escape routs from the coastal areas of the Rio Grand Valley. Along with that, the mode...
Abstract. Evacuation planning is critical for numerous important applications, e.g. disaster emergency management and homeland defense preparation. Efficient tools are needed to pr...
It is recognized in Ambient Intelligence that ambient devices should be modeled as intelligent autonomous components rather than passive information sources. The agent paradigm sui...
This paper presents a model for studying the impact of individual agents characteristics in emergent groups, on the evacuation efficiency as a result of local interactions. We use...
