Evaluation Measure of the Agility of Emergency Knowledge Supply

Emergency decision-makers need knowledge supports with high agility during the process of decision-making.The quantification of knowledge supply agility can evaluate the level of emergency responses effectively.From the perspective of the network chain of supply and demand composed by emergency departments,we present a path based on agility evaluation methods(PAE) for knowledge supplies.This method measures the decision-making supply capabilities of a single emergency participant,and computes each knowledge supply path from each emergency participant to the ultimate decision maker.The agility of the network chain is evaluated through integrating the agility of these paths.Through the simulation experiment on the knowledge supplies of avian influenza handling,we validate the usability of this evaluation method that can objectively evaluate the agility of knowledge supplies in emergency responses.
