TOPICS OF INTEREST
ISCRAM 2024 takes a process-centric view on crisis management and emphasizes a holistic and integrated process view of crisis management to overcome isolated considerations of crisis management lifecycle phases (see Conference Vision & Topic). We would like to carry forward the conference’s vision of a “pracademic” approach and come together in a poster & demonstration session to showcase practitioners’ and academic work, exchange ideas and find new ways for future collaboration. By demonstration, we mean the demonstration of instruments, procedures, training scenarios or tools. The demonstration serves to inform the participants by showing those without actually applying them in the form of tutorials etc. (which is part of the Workshops & Tutorials).
In the light of this year’s theme “Embracing the Crisis Management Lifecycle”, posters and demos that are associated with the following topics (in alphabetical order) are particularly welcome:
| Number | Topic |
|---|---|
| 1 | Case Studies and real-life experiences |
| 2 | Collaborative and intelligent systems |
| 3 | Community emergency response teams |
| 4 | Community resilience |
| 5 | Crisis planning, training and gaming |
| 6 | Data integration, representation, and visualization |
| 7 | Decision support systems |
| 8 | Display of operating procedures |
| 9 | Emergency response systems |
| 10 | Information and communication technologies |
| 11 | Process modelling and management |
| 12 | Public-private partnership and practitioner-academic collaboration |
| 13 | Showcases of crisis management operations |
| 14 | Specific tools, technologies, software, hardware, etc., that can be demonstrated |
