Dear All , The next NCSI-NET meeting will be held on Saturday, May 13th 2006. The meeting will commence with a talk. All are cordially invited for the talk. Speaker: Dr. Sudhakar Varanasi, Senior Vice President, Satyam Computer Services Topic: Putting head and heart together: Technology in the service of Society: A case study of emergency services in Andhra Pradesh Time: 10-30 AM. Venue: Seminar Hall, NCSI, IISc, Bangalore Abstract: In India, about two lakh people face medical emergencies every day. Accidents at homes, workplaces and on roads happen quite frequently along with other medical, police and fire-related emergencies. The support systems required to deal with these emergencies in the society virtually do not exist in India. When an emergency occurs, we need a rapid action support system to come into force to bail the victims out of the imminent threat of loss of life or property. A systematic approach to providing total support to the victims of emergencies requires the integration of three phases (Sense, Reach and Care). A comprehensive emergency response system on the lines of 9.1.1 in the US and 112 in the EU was developed in the state of Andhra Pradesh by EMRI, a non-profit society that works on the PPP (public private partnership) model. Technology used in this project includes Computer Telephony Integration, Voice Loggers, GIS / Maps, GPS / AVLT, Mobile communications, e-learning etc. The EMRI project went live on Aug 15, 2005 and is now operational in 18 cities/towns in AP, covering about 13 million people, with an excellent support from the Government. The number of lives saved in exceeded 2000 during the past 9 months. The lessons learnt, the confidence gained and the future plans in this project will be shared during this presentation.
