The purpose of mass casualty disaster management is to reduce the level of public risk associated with emergencies and disasters. High quality and responsiveness of emergency services is currently one of the Australian national priorities. Vast amount of both explicit and tacit practical disaster management knowledge has been accumulated at Medical Displan Victoria. The proposed research investigates the issues of planning, design, implementation, and monitoring of an integrated knowledge-based computer decision support system that is aimed at improving the contingency management processes in order to satisfy the demands for high quality and responsiveness of mass casualty disaster medical services in Australia.
