1E: Tracking and control
These research activities aim at designing systems to tract and control the dispatched task forces for the purpose of efficient and effective disaster and emergency management.
Examples of research topics are:
Models of tracking nodes for different devices and systems including devices such as swarms of UAV’s, autonomous devices, etc.
İnterfaces to tracking nodes
Monitoring interfaces and generation
Layered distributed control architectural styles
Control algorithms
Control strategies
Control parameters for different kinds of nodes
Adaptive control
Modeling and measuring quality of control
Controlling when predefined or unanticipated emergent conditions appear
Control ontologies and strategies
Automatic data gathering for improving tracking and control
Machine learning for optimum control
Standardization of control interfaces
