Abstract
We are developing a resilient information management (RIM) system that enables people to share critical information with each other to rescue victims just after disasters have happened. The RIM system works on a locally and quickly established WiFi network environment. Thus, using this system, people can manage and share various types of information including medical information, damaged area and map information, and supply/demand information even if the Internet and communication network infrastructures have collapsed. In this paper, we introduce the concept of the RIM system and its current status with some related-technologies.
