Natural disasters affect our society in profound ways. Between 2000 and 2009, disasters killed 1 million people, affected an additional 2.5 million individuals and caused a loss of about $1 trillion (2010 World Disasters Report). Effective disaster response requires a near-real-time effort to match available resources to shifting demands on a number of fronts. Experts today lack the means to provide emergency response agencies with validated strategies for disaster planning and response on a timely basis. Data-driven models and computer simulations for disaster preparedness and response can play a key role in predicting the evolution of disasters and effectively managing emergencies through a diverse set of intervention measures. This project will establish an approach that includes (a) planning disaster response, (b) public information and warning, (c) critical transportation services, (d) mass population care services, and (e) public health and medical services. Effective use of this integrated modeling approach may lead to enhanced safety, quality of life and community resilience. The project also provides an excellent context for doctoral, masters, and undergraduate level research and students will be introduced to career pathways through their participation in research, publication, and partnership with public agencies and data-driven science and engineering researchers.This project will enhance disaster response and community resilience through multi-faceted research to create a big data system to support data-driven simulations with the necessary volume, velocity, and variety and integrate and optimize the key aspects and decisions in disaster management. This includes (a) a novel computational infrastructure capable of executing multiple coupled simulations synergistically, under a unified probabilistic model, (b) addressing computational challenges that arise from the need to acquire, integrate, model, analyze, index, and search, in a scalable manner, large volumes of multi-variate, multi-layer, multi-resolution, and interconnected and inter-dependent spatio-temporal data that arise from disaster simulations and real-world observations, (c) a new high performance data processing system to support continuous observation of the numerical results for simulations from different domains with diverse resource demands and time constraints. These models, algorithms, and systems will be integrated into a disaster data management cyber-infrastructure (DataStorm) that will enable innovative applications and generate broad impacts--through close collaborations with domain experts from transportation, public health, and emergency management--in disaster planning and response.

自然灾害深刻地影响着我们的社会。 2000 年至 2009 年间，灾害导致 100 万人死亡，另外 250 万人受到影响，并造成约 1 万亿美元的损失（2010 年世界灾害报告）。有效的灾难响应需要近乎实时的努力，将可用资源与多个方面不断变化的需求相匹配。 如今，专家们缺乏及时向应急响应机构提供经过验证的灾害规划和响应策略的手段。用于备灾和响应的数据驱动模型和计算机模拟可以在预测灾害演变和通过各种干预措施有效管理紧急情况方面发挥关键作用。 该项目将制定一种方法，包括（a）规划灾难响应，（b）公共信息和警报，（c）关键交通服务，（d）大众护理服务，以及（e）公共卫生和医疗服务。有效利用这种综合建模方法可能会提高安全性、生活质量和社区复原力。该项目还为博士、硕士和本科水平的研究提供了良好的背景，学生将通过参与研究、出版以及与公共机构和数据驱动的科学和工程研究人员的合作来了解职业道路。该项目将增强通过多方面的研究，建立一个大数据系统，以支持数据驱动的模拟，提供必要的数量、速度和多样性，并整合和优化灾害管理的关键方面和决策。这包括（a）一种新颖的计算基础设施，能够在统一的概率模型下协同执行多个耦合模拟，（b）解决因需要在一个统一的概率模型中获取、集成、建模、分析、索引和搜索而产生的计算挑战。以可扩展的方式，从灾害模拟和现实世界观测中产生大量多变量、多层、多分辨率、相互关联和相互依赖的时空数据，（c）一种新的高性能数据处理系统支持持续观察来自具有不同资源需求和时间限制的不同领域的模拟的数值结果。这些模型、算法和系统将集成到灾难数据管理网络基础设施 (DataStorm) 中，通过与交通、公共卫生和应急管理领域专家的密切合作，该基础设施将实现创新应用并产生广泛影响。灾难规划和响应。
