Abstract

This paper presents an ontology for emergency event model based on decision support (DSE²M). The model is recommended as a means to solve problems of how to describe basic characteristics of each phase in an emergency, and decide to take corresponding actions to deal with it according to the characteristics. To obtain satisfactory solutions and detailed actions, DSE²M is stratified into five levels: event layer, phases layer, representation layer, decision-making layer, and action layer. DSE²M constructs the vocabulary as a platform of semantic integration and the common model to support emergency decision.
