FireGrid is researching the development and
integration of modelling, sensors, Grid, HPC,
and C/C technologies. It will stimulate further
research, in new safety systems and strategies, in
new sensor technologies, in improved modelling
techniques and in Grid technologies and
operation.
By integrating previously uncoupled tools,
FireGrid will allow true performance-based
design for the built environment. It will
introduce a new emergency response paradigm,
using scenarios planned and stored in advance in
conjunction with super-real-time simulation.
Deployment of FireGrid will reduce costs and
save lives
