| Abstract | Firefighting is a dangerous profession, which often faces complicate, variable, and uncertain situation. Only depending on conventional tools, can not the firefighters cooperatively work effectively. We present a mobile fuzzy decision support application solutions for firefighter cooperation in ad hoc networks based on the decision support architecture proposed by William J. O’Brien. The application solutions, involve path navigation, danger reminder, rescue cooperation, and extinguishing cooperation. By these solutions, the firefighters can obtain complete situation information of the fire scene. To realize the application solutions, we discuss two main issues, map synchronization and alternative optimization. For an effective map synchronization scheme, we present synchronization table strategy. For alternative optimization we give a selection process based on triangular fuzzy set. The realization of the decision support applications, and the interfaces’ patterns are discussed in the end. |
