Duration: 04/01/2016 – 03/31/2019 (36 months)
Status: Complete
Member Institutes: MIMOS, NICT, UCSY, NECTEC, ASTI, HUST, VNU ITI, Mapua, SAREN, AIST
Journal Publications: 15
International Conference Presentations: 7

Goals:
This project addresses the impact of climate change on cities and urbanization, with particular relevance to the priority area of improving environmental resilience and, more specifically, in disaster mitigation.

Activities:

• Develop a Software Defined System architecture blueprint for disaster mitigation, crisis communication, and emergency management that can monitor and report disaster events in near real-time.
• Investigate programmability aspects of IoTs technologies, storage, networking, and edge/cloud computing platforms.
• Conduct field testing of potential use cases using NICT’s existing testbeds such as JGN-X, Starbed, and JOSE.
• Organise workshops with ASEAN members to disseminate R&D results.
• Dialogue with PRAGMA (NSF, US), CENTRA (NSF, US), and CECEA (Taiwan) on similar R&D challenges to accelerate project activities.
