Paola, Hi. I am not sure if this is what you are looking for but it seems a little on track. It deals with the concept of social behaviors in an emergency situation. Mainly, it applies to evacuations. I suppose one way to look at it would be to understand group (collective) knowledge during a disaster, and how it is measured and spreads to members of a particular social group. Please take a look at this paper as an example: (See attached file: HARE.MOJA.MIZU.WIAP-BPM-2007.pdf) Another way of looking at it, would be to discuss the communication impact a disaster has on different types of flow control models (evacuations). Outside of the psychological and communication aspects of an disaster event is to look at it from the intelligence side of things. Meaning, HUMINT from a military point of view. Any thoughts? -Steve Steven Young, MBA.

I take this opportunity to invite submissions from the Emergency Management community for the Human Collective Intelligence track at IEEE/DEST 2009 which I am chairing http://www.ieee-dest.curtin.edu.au/2009/index.php Look forward to contributions from this area of work best Paola Di Maio -- Paola Di Maio (D.E.A) Digital Ecosystem Applications *********************************************
