Figure 2 shows the results of a simulation of the event. In particular, the display shows the status of victims over time and the evacuation of thos victims from the scene. VCR-like controls allow the user to move to any interval in the simulation; interrupt the simulation; introduce new events; change rules, decisions, or parameters; and resume the simulation. Essentially everything is in the control of the user.

Simulation Results

Map 2

Map 1 shows the traffic congestion resulting from a D4S2 simulation of hypothetical explosion in the West End effecting 80 casuallties. The simulation uses the existing dispatch and triage protocols. The simulation encompasses the response of emergency equipment to the emergency and the evacuation of casualties from the emergency. In this emergency, the casualties must be transported from the West End to Oakland, where the bulk of the serving hospitals are. The map is colored red for highest traffic congestion, yellow for moderate congestion, and green for minor congestion.
