Using Simulation for Decision Support: Lessons Learned from FireGrid
Gerhard Wickler, George Beckett, Liangxiu Han, Sung-Han Koo, Stephen Potter, Gavin J. Pringle, Austin Tate · ERA · 2009
This paper describes some of the lessons learned from the FireGrid project. It starts with a brief overview of the project. The discussion of the lessons learned that follows is intended for others attempting to develop a similar system, where sensor data is used to steer a super-real time simulation in order to generate predictions that will provide decision support for emergency responders.
