Emergency Management
Stakeholders Individuals
Enterprises
Whole society
Future generations
Nature of the system factors Extremely low probability
Extremely high impact
Extremely complex systems (people, services, equipment, management, technology, etc.) that must be ready in a very long period of time (ideally indefinitely) just to be used for a very short period of time (during the emergent situation).

Intelligent Information Systems (IIS) Core concepts [TOSMIL,TOS,CH]
(Context sensitive) Semantics
Active distributed knowledge
Complex adaptive systems
Interactive communities of agents (human as well as software)
IIS value-add
PEOPLE PEOPLE PEOPLE make the system intelligent, effective and successful!!!

Quality of interaction on the Web?
How many of you have ever used the Web? (ALL – easy, available, valuable, pervasive)
How many of you want to contribute to Web site building? (CONFLICT – contribute ALL – tedious building FIEW)
How many of you personally maintain or hire a service to maintain your Web site? (FIEW or DON’T KNOW – tedious work requiring technical
knowledge)
How many of you have had a problem updating your site? (FIEW – due to expensive SA support, UPDATES ARE REAR
AND RISKY)
4/15/2005 5/20
Quality of interaction on the Web?
How many of you have the need for collaborative mechanisms and group support? (ALL have the need but FIEW recognize the need)
How many of you have the need to accumulate personal knowledge built over a general topic? (ALL have the need but FIEW have first-hand experience)
What about distributed, shared, and community knowledge? (Value for ALL but critical mass threshold is high)
How many of you would like to have easy access to national heritage knowledge and interact with it? (ALL – but REQUIRES Next Generation National Heritage
Infrastructure)

Our answer: Collaborative Semantic Web Portal Prototype Collaborative workspace that brings
together
People
Relevant information,
Knowledge,
Interaction,
Innovative methodologies, and
Supporting Tools

Our answer: Collaborative Semantic Web Portal Prototype Prototype:
Inter- as well as intra-community collaboration,
Workflow and Process management,
Interaction,
Knowledge sharing and dissemination,
Heterogeneous information integration,
Awareness building.
Mechanisms: System login and working groups,
Interaction over content,
Interaction over structure,
Interaction over presentation semantics,

System login and working groups
Permissions for users and working groups:
VIEW page contentEDIT page contentPRINT page contentCREATE new pageATTACHMENTS per page
Not in Work Group?
You don’t have privileges to VIEW and EDIT this page content
4/15/2005 9/20
Menu creating and editing
Page and content creating and editing
Page attachments as documents and pictures
Different ways of the content printing
4/15/2005 10/20
Interaction over content: Collaborative page editing
4/15/2005 11/20
Interaction over content: Content printing
Pretty printing Pure text printing PDF printing MS Word printing
4/15/2005 12/20
Interaction over structure: Automatic Links
Automatic links for page neighborhood (links pointing to the page and links pointing from the page)
Useful for drop-down menus within main menu as well as page-specific menus reflecting current context
4/15/2005 13/20
Interaction over presentation semantics
Importing inter and intra web pages or their some part into page content
4/15/2005 14/20
Interaction over presentation semantics
Personalization and configuration of several existing applications
4/15/2005 15/20
Our experience so far
Education Student-teacher communication is improved Students are more active on the projects Management of the course is more natural Students like this approach
Agile project management Interactive distributed meeting minutes administration Project knowledge accumulation Project members have location-independent access to
shared project’s documentation over the Web Automatic e-mail notification about changes
in the shared workspace
4/15/2005 16/20
Self organizing complex system for “storage – for forever” and semantic collaboration
Future work: P2P Semantic Web for robust distributed storage
4/15/2005 17/20
Conclusion
Intelligent information systems Collaboration and easy access to information Personal knowledge accumulation Distributed, shared, and community knowledge Interaction over multiple dimensions:
Content Structure Presentation semantics
Heterogeneous application integration Robust distributed storage for knowledge
archiving
