  Title Community based cost effective early warning dissemination network (EWDN) Type Conference Article
  Year 2006 Publication Proceedings of ISCRAM 2006 – 3rd International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management Abbreviated Journal ISCRAM 2006  
  Volume Issue Pages 50-51  
  Keywords Information systems; Community-based; Cost effective; Deleterious effects; Disaster warnings; Dissemination networks; Early warning; Loss of life; Natural disasters; Disasters  
  Abstract Natural disasters are frequent in Bengladesh. Because Bengladesh has a fragile economy that is mostly dependent on agriculture, these events can be disastrous to the economy and people of the country. Adequate warnings to the community and institutions can mitigate the deleterious effects. This paper presents a model for an effective disaster warning and dissemination system (EWDN) that can provide timely and accurate alerts of natural disasters thus reducing loss of life, property and other risks.

  Title Dynamic optimisation of the use of space technology for rapid disaster response and management Type Conference Article
  Year 2005 Publication Proceedings of ISCRAM 2005 – 2nd International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management Abbreviated Journal ISCRAM 2005  
  Volume Issue Pages 139-141  
  Keywords Algorithms; Artificial intelligence; Disaster prevention; Information systems; Optimization; Satellite ground stations; Disaster management; Disaster warnings; Dynamic optimisation; Intelligent Algorithms; Meta heuristics; Natural and man-made disasters; Real-world problem; Space technologies; Disasters  
  Abstract Modern space and information technologies provide valuable tools for the solution of many real-world problems in fields of managing effects of natural and man-made disasters, geomatic engineering, etc. Therefore, the need to develop and optimise the use of these technologies in an efficient manner is necessary for providing reliable solutions. This paper aims to develop powerful optimisation algorithms extending current highly successful ideas of artificial intelligence for developing of the disaster warning network which is a system of satellites and ground stations for providing real time early warning of the impact of the disaster and minimise its effects (e.g., earthquakes, landslides, floods, volcanoes, etc). Such intelligent algorithms can provide a degree of functionality and flexibility suitable both for constructing high-accuracy models and in monitoring their behaviour in real time.
