UCCD 2013 - Workshop on Urgent Computing: Computations for Decision Support in Critical Situations

Decision support in critical situations comprising complex technical and environmental systems is a difficult interdisciplinary research area which is based on data-driven technologies, high-performance simulation and visualization facilities. The computational concept of urgent computing is considering as computational services (or resources) as data services work jointly in distributed environment for the help decision maker to make an optimal behavior scenario in time limitations. The main topics of the workshop are:
- Methods and the principles of urgent computing.
- Urgent computing platforms and infrastructures.
- Simulation-based decision support for complex systems.
- Interactive visualization for decision support in emergency situations.
- Domain-area applications to emergency situations.
