Abstract

In this paper a computing model for Fire Emergency Response is discussed. The Fire Emergency Response (FER) is considered here as a complex heterogeneous system. The FER system is composed of Fire Incident, Fire Station, Fire Emergency Vehicle, and Road Network components. Agent-based Modeling (ABM) is used to model the properties and behavior of each of the components. To incorporate the spatial properties and spatial operations in relation to modeling the behavior of components Geographical Information System (GIS) is used. The simulation of the model will provide the results of dynamical behavior of components through interaction with other components. The FER system model is implemented in GAMA 1.5.1 a GIS and agent modeling platform for simulation.
