Access control is easy to implement in a static system with resource-role mapping and known policies. It becomes challenging if the system is dynamic and volatile, which means there are unpredictability in the workflow. Existing role based and attribute- based access control systems are very efficient in static and predictable situations. But they are not effective in a dynamic situation. Researchers over the last two decades have tried to propose various probabilistic based, machine learning based and decision theory-based access control to prove adaptability in their access control methods. But there are existing gaps in operational needs and proposed adaptability methods. Under regular scenario access control system may work based on the policies or decided roles. Only if there is a genuine need, then access control should switch to adaptable solutions. Also, a true adaptable system should not allow human intervention, the system should be able to understand the genuineness of the requester and take decisions whether access should be granted or not. In this paper with the help of a disaster management case study, a need-based access control framework – NdRAdAC is proposed. It evaluates the genuineness of the requester and acts appropriately. An ontology-based access control for an emergency response system is developed, which can help the disaster management system to coordinate with different hospitals and help in transferring patient data from one hospital to another if needed. It ensures that data requester is authenticated with the help of access control module. The framework is tested for three main parameters: Adaptability, Consistency and Computational Efficiency. It was found that framework was accurately adaptable, consistent with all the different types of cases and computationally efficient.

Abstract. Emergency response is the critical phase in disaster management, which can save lives and reduce losses by useful, accurate, and timely information. The surveying and mapping authorities at all levels are making great efforts to meet the increasing demand for geospatial data in disaster and risk management. In this paper, it takes the Sichuan province of China as an example. It presents a geospatial information based emergency response system for geological disasters from the perspective of the provincial mapping authority. The scheme of the response system aims to solve many problems that arose in practical disaster management and to meet the requirements of public safety and government management by geospatial information and services. Built on historical experience and improved through practical application, the system has now effectively improved the workflow in all phases of emergency response. The paper discusses the critical contents of the system’s general framework in terms of emergency mechanism, GIS technology, geospatial data, emergency equipment, and professional teams. A case study is applied in this paper to explain how the system makes its function. The end of the article gives an analysis of its benefits and disadvantages and a comparison with other similar systems.

The paper addresses the problem of increasing transportation safety due to usage of new possibilities provided by modern technologies. The proposed approach extends such systems as ERA-GLONASS and eCall via service network composition enabling not only transmitting additional information but also information fusion for defining required emergency means as well as planning for a whole emergency response operation. The main idea of the approach is to model the cyber physical human system components by sets of services representing them. The services are provided with the capability of self- contextualization to autonomously adapt their behaviors to the context of the car-driver system. The approach is illustrated via an accident emergency situation response scenario. “ERA-GLONASS” is the Russian state emergency response system for accidents, aimed at improving road safety and reducing the death rate from accidents by reducing the time for warning emergency services. In fact, this is a partially copied European e Call system with some differences in the data being transmitted and partly backward compatible with the European parent. The principle of the system is quite simple and logical: in the event of an accident, the module built into the car in fully automatic mode and without human intervention determines the severity of the accident, determines the vehicle’s location via GLONASS or GPS, establishes connection with the system infrastructure and in accordance with the protocol, transfers the necessary data on the accident (a certain distress signal). Having received the distress signal, the employee of the call center of the system operator should call the on-board device and find out what happened. If no one answers, send the received data to Sistema-112 and send it to the exact coordinates of the team of rescuers and doctors, and the last one to arrive at the place is given 20 minutes. And all this, I repeat, without the participation of a person: even if people caught in an accident will not be able to independently call emergency services, the data on the accident will still be transferred. In this work intended to add some information about applying system project in Uzbek Roads especially mountain regions like “Kamchik” pass. The Kamchik Pass is a high mountain pass at an elevation of 2.306 m above the sea level, located in the Qurama Mountains in eastern Uzbekistan and its length is about 88km.The road to reach the pass is asphalted, but there are rough sections where the asphalt has disappeared. It’s called A373. The old road over the pass was by passed by a tunnel built in 1999. On the horizon, the snow-capped peaks of the Fan Mountains come into view. The pass is located in the Fergana Valley between the Tashkent and Namangan Regions.

Abstract Motivation Nations around the world have been significantly impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic. China’s strategies for controlling COVID-19 offer valuable lessons for the global community. By learning from China’s experience and lessons, other countries could also find appropriate methods to control the pandemic. Problem statement What measures has China taken to control the pandemic? What lessons has China learned through this pandemic? Approach/methods The literature on China’s lessons and experience in controlling the COVID-19 pandemic was searched and reviewed. Related newspapers and magazines were also searched. Results China’s experience can be summed up as establishing temporary hospitals, strict isolation, experts with a knowledge of COVID-19, and measures that increase social distancing. Conclusions By learning from the experience of China, other countries in the world could eventually find the methods to control the COVID-19 pandemic. An emergency response system should be established in each country. Doctors and nurses are not alone in fighting COVID-19, and the entire world is helping them. With cooperation, current difficulties could be overcome.
