Pervasive computing technologies can enable very flexible situated collaboration patterns among citizens and, via crowdsourcing, can promote a participatory way of contributing to the wealth and quality of life of our urban environments. This position paper firstly sketches a future vision of pervasive computing rich and crowdsourcing-enabled urban environments. Then, it presents several case studies...
Natural disasters represent a typical large-scale dynamic environments. As governments are more and more relying on sensors to monitor natural disasters, many related research problems have to be tackled, in particular the sensors relocation. In this paper we propose to plan the sensors relocation in a virtual geographic environment (VGE) which is synchronized with the real environment (where the...
The analysis of human behavior is the basis of understanding many social phenomena. Based on a large database of taxi billing system, this paper provides an analysis of human mobility data in an urban area of using taxi services in Shanghai. By studying the spatial temporal data of taxi services, it shows that the distribution of running time interval is approximated by Power-law distribution. And...

Ad hoc network is an essential means of communication in disaster scenes. Validation of new communication protocols for these networks requires exhaustive simulation runs because real life experiences can be performed exclusively during expensive civil protection exercises. The necessity of these simulations calls for realistic and reliable mobility models which take into account numerous aspects...
Based on the Game Theory, this paper set up a dynamic information Game Model. We used the method of the performance of two-dimensional classification proposed by Borman and Motowidlo. Then, we propose some countermeasures after analyzing the Contextual performance management of Civil Servants.

In this paper, we present an agent-based model for hurricane evacuation which captures the interactions among evacuees during the evacuation process. Both normal and greedy household agents are considered. The normal agents simply follow the shortest route toward their destinations regardless of the congestion on each route segment. The greedy agents on the other hand make choices between the shortest...
In this article, based on the FIST model, it proposes four parameters to describe the crowd massing risk in public venues that are the density (D), mutual interaction between each others (I), the personnel characteristics (C) and the impact derived form environmental (E) disturbance on the massing crowd. Then, it carries out the corresponding technical analysis for the four predefined parameters....
This study establishes a conceptual model to assess the cybersecurity readiness for the public sector in Cambodia.
