What are Cyber-Physical Systems?
Massive integration of
wireless networks,
advanced sensors, 3D
simulations, and cloud
services enabling a
new generation of
Smart Systems.

– Global data collection, central analytics, targeted
decision making
– Real time information, where and when it is needed
– Total cost estimated at $300B+
– 70,000 firefighter injuries
• 45% on fireground
• 25% are moderate or severe
Why Apply CPS to Firefighting?
• Fire losses/costs still too high
• Fire scene is an information-poor environment
• CPS offers opportunities previously unimaginable
– Lack of information on location of fire fighters, victims,
& fire
– Lack of data on thermal conditions, gas-phase species,
smoke,…

• Real-time data extremely limited
• Small teams take action based on local observables
• Some teams interact with IC over radio
• IC directs action based on limited available information
Today’s Information-Poor Fire Ground
4
-
- Not all teams in real-time communications with IC
- IC uses info and knowledge to build a mental model
- IC uses mental model to issue commands to the teams
- IC may not know the outcome of individual commands
- IC may not know success or failure until end of an event
- Few sensors
- Limited communication links
- Fire fighters observe, analyze, and act

Current State of Fire Fighting:
• Fire losses are too large
• Fire fighting is hazardous
• Fire ground is chaotic
Proposal:
Use CPS to provide an information-rich
environment, data analytics, and real-time
decision tools to improve fire protection and
the safety and effectiveness of fire fighters 5

Paradigm Shift Smart Fire Fighting
From:
• Untapped/unavailable data
• Lack of awareness
• Local information-poor decisions
• Tradition-based tactics
• Isolated equipment and building
elements
• Human operations
To:
• Data collection, analysis & communication
• Sensors everywhere
• Global information-rich decision making
• Data-driven physics-based tactics
• Interconnected equipment and building
monitoring, data, and control systems
• Human controlled operations
