RoboCupRescue is an international cooperative research project aiming at proposal of a new paradigm of social infrastructure against emergency disasters as an application of multi-agent technology and robotics. RoboCupRescue Simulation Project considers an artificial disaster society by computer simulation. A distributed simulation method integrates disaster simulators, and in the future, realworld interfaces and human interfaces. Intelligent behavioral agents make disaster response activities in this virtual world with intelligent civilian agents creating a synthetic virtual disaster field. It contributes virtual disaster experience, city planning, realtime disaster response, and standardization of infrastructures. Simulation results and experiments by a prototype system demonstrated its effectiveness in evaluating disaster response strategies.
