workflow management for paramedical emergency operations within a mobile-static distributed environment
In this paper we present the OMU Workflow platform and underlaying toolkit we developed based on the Triana Workflows environment, for implementing the Workflow Management of Paramedical Emergency Operations scenario within an intelligent context-aware mobile distributed Peer-to-Grid (P2G) infrastructure. The underlying OMU toolkit is a stand-alone system and the core components are independent of any workflow environment. We discuss the novel hybrid P2G architectural model we designed consolidating Peer-to-Peer and Grid computing research, providing new solutions to a dynamic distributed data-driven scenario that could radically increase the volume and timeliness of available information for decision support during the rescue operations. We also discuss the application of our workflow platform to other domain problems in our future work and the next steps in the path of testing and validation.
