| Abstract: | The aim of this paper is to describe the I-X system with its principal user interface, the I-X Process Panel, its
underlying ontology, <I-N-C-A>, and how this panel can be used as an intelligent to-do list that assists emergency
responders in applying pre-defined standard operating procedures in different types of emergencies. In particular,
multiple instances of I-X Process Panels can be used as a distributed system to coordinate the efforts of independent
emergency responders as well as responders within the same organization. Furthermore, it can be used as an agent
wrapper for other software systems such as web services to integrate these into the emergency response team as
virtual members. The heart of the I-X system is an automated planner that can be used to synthesize courses of
action or explore alternative options manually. |
