Proposal of Simulation-Based Management of Biological or Chemical Incidents as a Smart Solution

Abstract

Management of biological or chemical incidents represents a challenging and demanding issue since it consists of several complex activities and important decisions. In case of accidents in agricultural or industrial mills or plants these decisions have to be made by personnel who are usually not primarily trained for such situations. From the technological perspective, various approaches or principles have been already applied and intended for computer-based support of biological or chemical incidents management. However, few of them incorporate principles of smart solutions which can make decisions even more precise and appropriate. This paper presents model utilizable for the management of biological or chemical incidents created in the multi-agent NetLogo environment and outlines possibilities of its extension by smart solution elements. Furthermore, together with the description of the simulation model, its parameterization is explained, and areas for further research are depicted
