“…In recent years, the widespread use of smartphones and other portable communication devices has facilitated and improved information sharing, and disaster preparedness in this new era of information sharing has been been widely researched [1] [2]. Therefore, a system that automatically presents evacuation routes via smartphones is eective [3].…”

In recent years, IoT has been expected to provide support during natural disasters, and studies focusing on ant colony optimization (ACO) have been conducted for providing evacuation routes for evacuees. We previously proposed a modied algorithm for ACO that improved on the slow convergence of ACO, but the problem with ACO-based evacuation is the time it takes the evacuees to reach a safe zone.In this study, we proposed a route suggestion algorithm that improves particle swarm optimization (PSO) to reduce the time required for ACO evacuation, and compared the performance of ACO and the proposed PSO. We also proposed a method that combines ACO and PSO and evaluated its performance.

“…The extension portion was partially reported in the Eleventh International Conference on Agents and Arti¯cial Intelligence. 5 If a tsunami or°ood tide occurs, evacuating through low elevation routes is very dangerous. In order to guide people to evacuate safely, evacuees should be directed to move along higher elevation routes.…”

In this paper, we propose an evacuation support system that provides evacuation routes in case of disasters, and verify the usefulness of the system. Current popular wireless communication infrastructure is supported by a series of base stations and one base station handles a lot of communication. Therefore, when communication base stations break down due to disasters such as an earthquake, it may become di±cult for people to use their smartphones based on the Internet. When the communication infrastructure is paralyzed, people will have great di±culty collecting information about the conditions of transportation systems and about the safety of family and friends using smartphones. Our proposed system addresses this problem by using multiple kinds of mobile agents in addition to static agents on smartphones that use a mobile ad hoc network (MANET). The proposed system collects information with mobile agents and di®uses information via mobile agents so that the system is able to provide an optimized evacuation route for each user in a dynamically changing disaster environment. In this paper, we extend our previously proposed evacuation support system to consider elevation information when constructing evacuation routes. When a tsunami or a°ood tide occurs, low elevations may be under water. Therefore, this revised evacuation support system
