Abstract :
So far, we have investigated a unified wide area disaster information network (WDN) using the Internet based on the combination of both wired and wireless networks. In this paper, we introduce resource management system (RMS) for WDN to recover from system failure with serious damage when the disaster happened. The system configuration and architecture are described and their functions are precisely explained. A prototyped system based on our suggested WDN was built to demonstrate its functionality.
