Introduction

The PerNEM 2015 workshop, to be held in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, in conjunction with IEEE PerCom 2015, builds on the very successful PerNEM 2014, PerNEM 2013, and PerNEM 2012 workshops. It will address the unique technical and scientific challenges of emergency and crisis management, which require effective sensing, communications and decision making with stringent time constraints in dynamic environments. Pervasive systems can provide decision support to rescuers and evacuees, collecting information that is vital for the emergency operation. This workshop will focus on pervasive networked sensing and decision making, both wired and wireless, for emergency management, including advances in sensing, communication, decision support, simulation tools, modeling methods and experimental evaluation.
