Towards Adaptive Sensor Data Management for Distributed Fire Evacuation Infrastructure

Simulation Model of Pedestrian Evacuation in High-Rise Building: Considering Group Behaviors and Real-Time Fire

“…In the past decades, quite a number of approaches had been developed for the modelling of evacuation, among which the cellular automata (CA) was widely used [21] [22]. Cellular Automata was first proposed by Von Neuman and Ulam.…”

Future Research on Cyber-Physical Emergency Management Systems

“…References [13][14][15][16][17][18]20,21,39,[42][43][44] rely on location information regarding the sensors to compute evacuation paths [51], while the deployment of sensors in work spaces and buildings in [12][13][14][15][16][17]20,21,25,39,42] enables the movement of evacuees and first responders. Except for [12][13][14][15][16]20,21], most approaches require maps either for computing or navigation purposes. Instead of physically sensed input, as in other work, some simulation studies [40,41] use virtual hazards to simulate emergencies.…”

“…Instead of physically sensed input, as in other work, some simulation studies [40,41] use virtual hazards to simulate emergencies. Also, the dynamic spread and shrinking of hazards is considered in [15,[19][20][21]23,25,39,42].…”

“…Moreover, dynamic prediction and forecast of environmental changes should be conducted to avoid unnecessary casualties [20,21,[39][40][41][42][43][44].…”

Computational Intelligence Applied to Wildfire Prediction Using Wireless Sensor Networks

“…Other works are related to the use of WSN to improve the security on evacuations (Cherniak and Zadorozhny, 2010). Reference (García et al, 2008) deals with the use of WSN to improve the information gathering for fire-fighters, in order to allow a better actuation to extinguish the fire.…”
