Abstract :
Emergency system denoted in this paper aims to harness natural disasters via investigating the situation of disasters and making contingency plans. Hence, integrating information of disasters from a complex distributed network is the foundation of the emergency system. This paper focuses on how to integrate information rapidly though multi-agent system technology. Based on this, we propose a hierarchical architecture which organizes immense amount of information efficiently and the cooperation mechanism based on task auction. Furthermore, we build feature space to measure the information resource´s capability of supplying information, and evaluate the architecture and cooperation mechanism through its application in integrating information of a geological disaster.
