Track Description

Nowadays continuous incidents, terrorist threats, catastrophic events have strongly underlined the need to plan and organize better responses to emergency situations. 

The track offers the possibility to present scientific results and critical issues concerning emergency responses procedures using Modeling and Simulation. Topics of interest include aspects such as:

· Simulation and testing of emergency scenarios;

· Personnel training trough Simulation;

· Modeling & Simulation of human crowd behavior;

· Modeling & Simulation of critical incidents;

· Synthetic and Virtual Environments for emergency situations;

· Medical emergency Simulation;

· Police, fire emergency Simulation;

· Emergency response Simulation;

· Simulation games for incidents and threats management;

· Modeling & Simulation of terrorist attacks;

· Modeling & Simulation of natural disasters;

· Emergency management systems;

· Emergency response Simulation in supply chain and logistic networks.

 

Nevertheless different topics concerning Emergency Simulation are welcome. Authors are kindly invited to include in their papers and presentations all the research works, case studies and application both theoretical and applied.
