By Horia-Nicolai Teodorescu,Alan Kirschenbaum,Svetlana Cojocaru,Claude Bruderlein

The concentration of this quantity is produced from the basics, versions, and data applied sciences (IT) tools and instruments for catastrophe prediction and mitigation. A extra certain record of issues contains mathematical and computational modeling of procedures resulting in or generating failures, modeling of catastrophe results, IT capability for catastrophe mitigation, together with information mining instruments, knowledge-based and professional structures to be used in catastrophe situations, GIS-based platforms for catastrophe prevention and mitigation and gear for disaster-prone components. a selected kind or type of failures (natural or human-made), besides the fact that aren't a part of the focus of this paintings. as an alternative, this ebook was once conceived to supply a finished, integrative view on failures, trying to ascertain what quite a few failures have in universal. simply because catastrophe resilience and mitigation contain people, societies and cultures, not just applied sciences and financial types, specific realization used to be paid during this quantity to realize a entire view on those concerns, as a beginning of the IT instrument design.
