2010 Third International Symposium on Electronic Commerce and Security The Design of Group Decision Support System for Emergency Management

摘要

China has entered a period in which emergencies are of high frequency of occurrence. Lack of professional knowledge is one of the main causes of emergency response failure. Therefore, emergency decision support system is imperative for the reduction of disaster losses and the efficiency improvement of emergency resources allocation. Based on the analysis of emergency decision-making process, the group decision support system (E-GDSS) framework is designed and the main functions of the system are defined which include case querying system, emergency assessment system and so on. A prototype system is developed in the context of public health emergencies. Practical application shows that the E-GDSS can provide information services for the emergency management and decision support. Finally we point out our future research directions.
