CbdA: Cloud Computing Based DMIS on ANEKA

A cloud computing application possesses the ability to have its processing tasks divided into small independent work units. These work units (in the form of tasks, threads etc.) are made to execute in parallel with complete independence from each other over the cloud. The proposed disaster management information system (DMIS) can be potentially used by amateurs, bureaucrats, technocrats and professionals working in the field or in the disaster affected area to handle any record based information, archive it, analyze it and use it even for forecasting the occurrence of disaster. Designing and deploying such an application over the cloud have given DMIS benefit of wide reach coupled with high performance, high reliability and better security.
