Popis: When the heavy rainfalls or typhoons occurred, many counties were unavoidable to suffer the debris-flow and flood disasters in Taiwan. Therefore, it is urgently required to obtain and inform the real-time disaster information to display the situation, and it is important for people to design an effective disaster information system to assist the disaster protection and alerting works. To plan and design a Multimedia Escape and Survival System (MESS), which is a three-tier system composed of the mobile users, multimedia server, and disaster decision server, and the system combines mobile communication technology. MESS combines RFID technology, GPS, GIS and GPRS/3G to find out the 4D safety paths and roads in the disaster areas, and the disaster decision is packed as a reusable Web services which can be used in MESS or other systems for reducing the cost and speeding up the efficiency of system development in the future. Mobile users use mobile devices with GPS to locate the longitude and latitude, and transmitting these coordinates to the GIS server. According to the longitude and latitude, the GIS will draw VR map of disaster area using GIS relevant database and show the simulated safety way to users. The MESS can draw the points on the VR map that includes all users' position and announces the best refuge and escape path. The reasoning engine of MESS is used knapsack problem (KP) and the adaptive path algorithm (APA) which consider distance, security, traffic volume, cost, and refuges where RFID readers were installed to infer reason the 4D safety paths and escape routes.
