ER Log Merging and Management tool available

Jun 01, 2010

http://mklab.iti.gr:8080/LogMergerDemo Managing and reviewing the log files that are created by the Emergency Response (ER) personnel in the course of an emergency incident is a critical task for understanding and improving the implemented ER actions. A major challenge arising in this task is the fact that multiple log files are created by different members of the ER personnel. As a result, extensive manual effort is necessary in order to merge and align the incoming log entries in order to make them suitable for review.
