  • Winter Simulation Conference - Simulation for emergency response: Homeland Defense center network - capitalizing on simulation, modeling and visualization for emergency preparedness, response and mitigation
    2003
    Co-Authors: Jack Corley, Dan Lejerskar
    Abstract:

    Emerging simulation, modeling and 3D visualization technologies (3D-SMV) could be used to dramatically improve how we prepare for, respond to and recover from disaster across federal, state, and local lines. It is now possible, at low-cost, to: • Address 3D-SMV needs with seamlessly integrated, commercial, scalable, networked solutions. • Provide unique flexibility to reuse 3D-SMV content across PC, laptop, or mobile devices via CD, LAN or Internet. • Portray fully interactive 3D-SMV on multi-wall display and, without change, on monitors with optional accessories including head-mounted displays, haptic gloves, 3D glasses. In the Homeland Defense Center Network, ATI is teamed with Eon Reality and University-based Homeland Defense Centers. Each Center has unique expertise in applying 3D-SMV to: urban assessment; surveillance; sensor simulation; critical infrastructure; scalable training; firefighting; and HAZMAT. This paper describes efforts to use these centers to capitalize on 3D-SMV for training and decision support throughout the emergency life-cycle.

  • Risk Assessment Using The Homeland-Defense Operational Planning System (HOPS)
    2005
    Co-Authors: R L Durling, D E Price, K K Spero
    Abstract:

    For over ten years, the Counterproliferation Analysis and Planning System (CAPS) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has been a planning tool used by U.S. combatant commands for mission support planning against foreign programs engaged in the manufacture of weapons of mass destruction (WMD). CAPS is endorsed by the Secretary of Defense as the preferred counterproliferation tool to be used by the nation's armed services. A sister system, the Homeland-Defense Operational Planning System (HOPS), is a new operational planning tool leveraging CAPS expertise designed to support the Defense of the U.S. Homeland. HOPS provides planners with a basis to make decisions to protect against acts of terrorism, focusing on the Defense of facilities critical to U.S. infrastructure. Criticality of facilities, structures, and systems is evaluated on a composite matrix of specific projected casualty, economic, and sociopolitical impact bins. Based on these criteria, significant unidentified vulnerabilities are identified and secured. To provide insight into potential successes by malevolent actors, HOPS analysts strive to base their efforts mainly on unclassified open-source data. However, more cooperation is needed between HOPS analysts and facility representatives to provide an advantage to those whose task is to defend these facilities. Evaluated facilities include: refineries, major ports,more » nuclear power plants and other nuclear licensees, dams, government installations, convention centers, sports stadiums, tourist venues, and public and freight transportation systems. A generalized summary of analyses of U.S. infrastructure facilities will be presented.« less

  • Use of the Homeland-Defense Operational Planning System (HOPS) for Emergency Management
    2005
    Co-Authors: R L Durling, D E Price
    Abstract:

    The Homeland-Defense Operational Planning System (HOPS), is a new operational planning tool leveraging Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's expertise in weapons systems and in sparse information analysis to support the Defense of the U.S. Homeland. HOPS provides planners with a basis to make decisions to protect against acts of terrorism, focusing on the Defense of facilities critical to U.S. infrastructure. Criticality of facilities, structures, and systems is evaluated on a composite matrix of specific projected casualty, economic, and sociopolitical impact bins. Based on these criteria, significant unidentified vulnerabilities are identified and secured. To provide insight into potential successes by malevolent actors, HOPS analysts strive to base their efforts mainly on unclassified open-source data. However, more cooperation is needed between HOPS analysts and facility representatives to provide an advantage to those whose task is to defend these facilities.
