How Can the “Always-On” Internet Enhance
Capabilities for Homeland Security?
• Three Tier System
– Wireless SensorNets Brings Data to Repositories
– Collaborative Crisis Management Data Centers
– Remote Wireless Devices Interrogate Databases
The “Always-On” Internet Can Be of Use
in Three Stages of an Emergency
• Early Warning SensorNets
– Detecting Bio/Chem/Nuclear Agents Directly
• Biosurveillance
– Identifying Common Symptoms Earlier
• Emergency Response
– Supporting First Responders in an Emergency
SensorNets:
A Fast Growing Field of Academic Research
