A Game Theory Approach For An Emergency Management Security Advisory System, Cheng-Kuang Wu

Cheng-Kuang Wu

Efficient emergency management must determine how and when to alert and advise the critical and appropriate response units to the danger of terrorist attacks, particularly when available resources are limited. We propose a framework for homeland security advisory system that incorporates two game theory models designed to advise response units and raise the alarm. In the first scheme the interactive behaviors between the elements or participants of the multi-emergency response system and the zone response unit are modeled and analyzed as a non-cooperative game, after which the terrorist threat value is derived from the mixed strategy Nash equilibrium. In the …
