  • Abstract
    During the last decade scientists have developed earthquake early warning systems EEWS with the intent of alerting citizens of seismic events. The technology is based on the fact that warning signals travels faster than seismic waves. Current EEWS however rely on expensive equipment which are not feasible to deploy in developing countries. This project describes the development of a system based on a more open and low-cost solution. In this scenario the project will focus on the application of Domain-specific languages DSLs to orchestrate different aspects of the system. The DSL will be used to filter, store and share data over the network as well improve the functionality. This will enhance the software to allow an easier understanding of the domain problem and therefore making it faster to write, debug and maintain.
