A Crisis Situations Decision-Making Systems Software Development Process With Rescue Experiences

Previously, we have proposed a computational model for decision-making in crisis situations called C-RPD (Computational Recognition Primed Decision). In this paper, a software development process customized for Crisis Situations Decision-Making Systems (CSDMSs) is proposed. Agile processes can skillfully manage uncertainty in software requirements and some of their features like incremental development can solve some problems in developing CSDMSs. However, these processes do not provide comprehensive solutions for issues like the lack of enough knowledge about CSDMSs, very rapid changes, urgent need to overcome security challenges, high development unpredictability, and the performance test. Extreme Programming (XP) is one of the best and most widely-used agile processes. In this article, a customized version of XP called Crisis Situations Decision-Making Systems Software Development Process (CSDP) is proposed. Standing first and second in five national and international RoboCup rescue agent simulation tournaments from 2006 to 2010 bear witness to the efficiency of the developed software using CSDP. Relying on its characteristics, CSDP has been able to practically tackle the challenges of developing CSDMSs such as the lack of crisis-related knowledge and cumulative nature of crisis-related knowledge, difficulty of extracting knowledge, long development cycle, and sudden and frequent changes in system requirements.

“…For many software projects, any change of the requirements will lead to design adjustment. AM is proposed as a solution to problems resulting from an unpredictable world [3], which encourages requirements change, so that the architecture must be adjustable. The new release plan and iteration plan in each phrase will cause architecture to be evolved.…”

Software architecture always exists in the target system although agile methodology (AM) weakens the design documents of the software architecture, and it will be improved continually as iteration process. The changes of business process and customer requirements should be dealt with in time. Therefore, it is essential that the stages of architecture evolution are explored in each release plan. The main hierarchy of architecture evolution is shown, the relationship between user stories and components is presented, and a method to support architecture evolution is given.

“…The model is robust against changes due to new requirements. We have termed this "architecture agility" in [13] and shown that the space-based architectural style helps to avoid costly architecture limiters or even breakers. The Peer Model extends this idea by not only considering passive data, but also modeling the active part, i.e.…”

Abstract. Modern distributed software systems must integrate in neartime parallel processes and heterogeneous information sources provided by active, autonomous software systems. Such lively information sources are e.g. sensory data, weather data, traffic data, or booking data, operated by independent distributed sites. The complex integration requires the coordination of these data flows to guarantee consistent global semantics. Design, implementation, analysis and control of distributed concurrent systems are notoriously complex tasks. Petri Nets are widely used to model concurrent activities. However, a higher-level programming abstraction is needed. We propose a new programming model for modeling concurrent coordination patterns, which is based on the idea of "peer workers" that represent re-usable coordination and application components. These components encapsulate behavior, structure distributed data and control flow, and allow integration of pre-existing service functions. A domain-specific language is presented. The usability of the peerbased programming model is evaluated with the Split/Join pattern.
