An integrated communication-computing solution in emergency management

Published:28 June 2010Publication History

ABSTRACT

In the last years an even more attention has been focused on emergency and crisis management systems. Both communication and computing aspects are of primary importance for a fast and reliable response in these particular scenarios. Differently from other approaches, in this paper we consider an integrated communication and computing solution, by proposing a joint approach, where a distributed computing platform and a heterogeneous meshed communication system interoperate in order to enhance the system reliability and readiness.
