The distributed nature of Blockchain helps to protect data from internal or external attacks, especially in disaster areas or times of crisis when database systems become overloaded and vulnerable to unauthorized access, manipulation, and disruption of critical services. This book can be used as a reference by graduate students, researchers, professors, and professionals in computer science, software design, and disaster management.
- Presents the design of blockchain-based frameworks for disaster management and their performance evaluation to help compare proposed frameworks
- Introduces applications of machine learning techniques to make disaster management systems more intelligent and enable more accurate data analysis/prediction
- Addresses data security issues as key examples that can be prevented through the application of blockchain technology
Researchers, graduate students, and professionals in the fields of computer science, software development, and disaster management
