MetaSim - design Version 1.0

Outline DrillSim Original design Plug and play requirements MetaSim Design Input Interfaces DrillSim Where are so far Future Directions

DrillSim Input Interfaces Scenario VR/AR UIs Infrastructure Inputs Visualization and Output Interface Maps Activity Simulator Agent Inputs Live RealWorld Inputs DrillSim Architecture

DrillSim to MetaSim Current crisis, response plan and communication inbuilt Need to be able to plug in external crisis, communication simulators and response plans Plug in IT Test IT solutions in the context of disaster response Require open platform to bring in different simulators that can coordinate in simulating a disaster response activity

General Input Interfaces MetaSim Data Repository Scenario VR/AR UIs Live RealWorld Inputs Infrastructure Inputs Visualization and Output Interface Maps Geographical Input Interface Crisis Simulator Crisis Inputs Communication Simulator Communication Inputs Activity Simulator Activity Simulator Inputs Transportation Simulator Transportation Simulator Inputs

Geography Input Region of Interest UCI, UCSD etc Outdoor information Buildings, roads, walkways, parking lots, open spaces, terrain, etc Indoor Information Room, floor, door, stair, elevators, exit signs etc Resources (can be determined from maps) Location, static/dynamic, material Type Communication and Sensor Response Related Other Objects

General Inputs Startup inputs No of simulators to be started RealTime/ Offline Fully simulated/ VR/AR Scenario Inputs General Action plan People Resources Communication and Sensor Disaster Response General resources/objects in space

Interface for General Inputs

Scenario Input

Scenario- People

Scenario - Resources

Inputs to Activity Simulator Activity Inputs General Activity Inputs Activity type Assembly Area Response plan for activity Agents Age Profile Psychological Factors Health Knowledge Role Personal items Carried Other entities in activities – resources etc ? Defined in metasim or Drillsim? What other entities?

Crisis Inputs Fire (Smoke side effect) Time Region Maps (obstacles, combustible objects) Height Air passages Wind Direction and Speed 3d open space map Earthquake Time Region Terrain maps, buildings etc Chemical plume (what chemicals?) Time of spill Region of spill Wind direction and speed

Communication Inputs Network Coverage and Topology Node location and type Links Signal footprint Dependencies from other networks Type Protocols Communication Devices Supported networks node reliability: up and down times Connection type

3: Output Visualization 2d and 3d Synchronization between them Integrated Statistics Global Selection Predicate (f(x)) as a function of time Agent level statistics
