Emergency Response Systems

Responding to disasters and crises is a crucial role for the government to ensure the public safety of society. Responding lies in the counter of crimes of civil or disorders, providing the urgent medical care to injured or sick people, and providing relief of natural and manmade disasters. Despite ongoing attempts to improve emergency response systems in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, it still suffers from vulnerability.  With the current development of the technology and internet of things (IoT), it became necessary to apply these techniques for improving emergency response systems in Jeddah. In this paper, we present Jeddah Smart Emergency Response System (JSERS) as a solution to improve the emergency response system in Jeddah using smart city technologiesز First, we discussed the problems related to the response to accidents and disasters and their history in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, especially Jeddah. Consequently, we described the proposed solution, followed by the architecture of the system. Following by the opportunities and the challenges of system implementation are discussed. Finally, a list of suggestions that supports this system implementation and deployment is reported.

Emergency Response Systems

Cyber war and cyber terrorism is real and is being waged. Cyber terrorists and cyber warriors are attacking systems and succeeding in their attacks. This requires management to prepare for the worst case, the loss and destruction of critical data and systems. This chapter helps management prepare for this worst case by discussing how to design and build emergency response systems. These systems are used to respond to worst case attacks. Additionally, these systems are useful for responding to other disasters that can cause the loss of systems and data. This chapter presents research into emergency response systems and concludes with a model of what an emergency response system should consist of.

Kasus kebakaran di Rumah Sakit masih tergolong tinggi dan ini sangat merugikan baik untuk pihak Rumah Sakit maupun pengunjung atau pasien yang berobat. maka diperlukan sistem tanggap darurat yang baik dalam menghadapi situasi darurat terutama kebakaran, maka dari itu tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui sistem tanggap darurat kebakaran serta bagaimana implementasi prosedur operasional tanggap darurat (emergency response and preparedness) Rumah Sakit 3M Plus. Jenis Penelitian ini adalah observasional dengan pendekatan kualitatif analitik. Analisa yang digunakan adalah triangulasi sumber, metode dan data. Data yang disajikan dalam bentuk matriks dan narasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sistem tanggap darurat seperti simulasi kebakaran, sarana penyelamatan, dan kesesuaian penerapan APAR masi perlu dievaluasi dan perlu dibenahi kembali agar menjadi sebuah tindakkan yang tepat sewaktu terjadinya kebakaran. Serta masih ada beberapa yang belum sesuai dengan Standar Nasional Indonesia (SNI) maupun permen PU. Sistem proteksi pasif seperti titik kumpul, pintu darurat, tangga darurat tidak memadai. Fire cases in the hospital are still high and this is very detrimental to both the hospital and visitors or patients who seek treatment. Therefore, a good emergency response system is needed in dealing with emergency situations, especially fires, therefore the purpose of this study is to determine the fire emergency response system and how to implement emergency response and preparedness procedures for 3M Plus Hospital. This type of research is observational with a qualitative analytic approach. The analysis used was the triangulation of sources, methods and data. Data presented in the form of a matrix and narrative. The results showed that emergency response systems such as fire simulations, rescue facilities, and suitability of the application of APAR still need to be evaluated and need to be reorganized so that they become an appropriate action when a fire occurs. And there are still some that are not in accordance with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) and PU candy. Passive protection systems such as gathering points, emergency exits, emergency stairs are inadequate.

Emergency Response Systems

European Union is a union of sovereign democratic countries which commonly agreed to integrate and, depending on the area, cooperate towards achieving better quality of life of European citizens. In the case of safety and security, since it is still national domain mainly, rather cooperation than integration aspect is prevailing. Since threats do not respect administrative borders it is the most important to do as much as possible for the cooperation improvement which, in fundamentals, could be done by knowing and understanding each other’s national civil protection and emergency response systems. Things are getting even more complicated if the object of scientific inquires in this respect is a country which is actually a federation of autonomous states as in the case of Spain or Germany. Then the national system as a matter of fact is being composed of a few or even several autonomous regional systems which are constituted and regulated on the regional level of the federation. This type of situation results from the historical, political, geographical backgrounds and due to many more reasons, however, it is always good to put a question how such systems operate in case of emergency? In order to present a synthetic description of the Spanish civil protection and emergency response system scientific methods of cognition such as the critical analysis of legal acts and normative documents as well as synthesis were used in the research. The study concluded with the future challenges for the system which should be undertaken to improve its efficiency.

Emergency Response Systems

In an emergency response system (ERS), resource matchmaking schema (RMS) consists of emergency impact assessment, resource utility classification and mapping between impact and utility. These tasks serve the resource allocation and must be done before launching rescue activities. However, related concepts and relations have little explication. Consequently, an adequate knowledge structure is necessary. In this paper, a domain ontology for RMS (RMS_Ontology) is formally defined, on which impact-utility mapping and rule-based reasoning process are implemented. Based on the ontology defined, the authors illustrate how RMS is realized and the way reasoning process works in the ERS application of highway network under severe weather conditions. Finally, a prototype system has been developed to facilitate knowledge management and to improve the performance of emergency disposal procedures.

The individual considerations of frail women who are elderly as to the use of personal emergency response systems (PERS) are discussed within this article, and they derived from a larger longitudinal study that explores the home care experience of older widows. Participants were 11 frail women (aged 81-94) who perceived a risk of “falling and not being found” and did not have a PERS. A descriptive phenomenological method was used to analyze PERS-related data obtained during interviews with each woman in her home. With regard to considering the use of a PERS, experiences were structured variously by “getting by fine without it,” “waiting to get it until I really need it,” “convincing myself that I might get it later,” and “borrowing no more trouble than I already have.” Consistent interventions by home care professionals may perhaps be needed to increase PERS utilization rates. To develop effective interventions, further descriptive research is deemed necessary to explore draw-backs and barriers to PERS use by older frail women.

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.
