Title
IoT4Emergency: Internet of Things for Emergency Management
Abstract
AbstractThe increasing natural and man-induced disasters such as res, earthquakes, oods, hurricanes, overcrowding, or pandemic viruses endanger human lives. Hence, designing infrastructures to handle those possible crises has become an ever-increasing need. The Internet of Things (IoT) has changed our approach to safety systems by connecting sensors and providing real-time data to managers, rescuers, and endangered people. IoT systems can monitor and react to progressive disasters, people's movements and their behavioral patterns. The community faces challenges in using IoT for crises management: i) how to take advantage of technological advancements and deal with IoT resources installation issues? ii) what environmental contexts should be considered while designing IoT-based emergency handling systems? iii) how should system design comply with various levels of real-time requirements? This paper reports on the results of the First International Workshop on Internet of Things for Emergency Management (IoT4Emergency 2020), which speci cally focuses on challenges and envisioned solutions in using smart connected systems to handle disasters.
