本文的目的是建立和测试一个综合框架的性能分析的灾害管理系统的系统（DM-SoS）。有效的灾害管理系统和程序对于拯救生命和保护财产至关重要。然而，参与灾害管理的不同系统和实体之间缺乏整合，影响了协调和业务效率。多个异构实体之间的更大集成和协调对于提高性能和实现以网络为中心的灾难管理至关重要。为了弥补这一差距，本文首先探讨了灾害管理系统评估的分析维度和框架。在拟议框架中，主要实体包括利益攸关方、业务、资源、信息和基础设施。其次，元网络框架被用来捕捉网络中各种类型的实体之间的相互作用。然后，网络效率的度量（例如，业务和协调效率）来确定关键实体和评价系统整合战略的有效性。2017年哈维飓风灾害管理过程的案例研究显示了拟议框架的应用。研究结果强调了SoS方法在评估不同灾害引起的扰动（例如，资源限制、基础设施中断和缺乏信息）。研究结果还确定了改善系统集成和网络中交互的各种异构实体之间的协调的方法。
The objective of this paper is to create and test an integrative framework for performance analysis of disaster management system-of-systems (DM-SoS). Effective disaster management systems and processes are critical for saving lives and protecting properties. However, the lack of integration between heterogeneous systems and entities involved in disaster management impacts coordination and operational efficiency. Greater integration and coordination among multiple heterogeneous entities is essential in improving performance and achieving network-centric disaster management. To address this gap, this paper, first examines the dimensions of analysis and a framework for a system-of-systems assessment of disaster management. In the proposed framework, the main entities include stakeholders, operations, resources, information, and infrastructure. Second, a metanetwork framework was employed to capture the network interactions among various types of entities. Then, measures of network efficiency (e.g., operational and coordination efficiency) were used to identify critical entities and evaluate the effectiveness of system integration strategies. The application of the proposed framework was shown in a case study of disaster management processes in the 2017 Hurricane Harvey. The findings highlight the importance of the SoS approach for evaluating the performance of disaster management processes under different disaster-induced perturbations (e.g., resources limitation, infrastructure disruptions, and lack of information). The findings also identify ways to improve system integration and coordination among various heterogeneous entities interacting in networks.
