USING MOBILE AGENTS FOR MANAGING CONTROL AND ALARMS IN URBAN INFRASTRUCTURES This paper proposes an integrated system dedicated to coordinated management of urban infrastructures (SIGEC). This system allows an ordered planning of the required work in an urban sector as well as an impact and the cost reduction of the interventions on the urban infrastructures. The SIGEC is based on a cooperative system which integrates a set of operating system (SIDEX), each of them being associated with a specific urban system (Sewerage, Waterworks, etc.). Dedicated to the management, regulation and interactive and dynamic monitoring of urban infrastructures in an efficient and correct way, the main objective of this system is to integrate the set of SIDEX in to a single coherent environment that can help different classes of user to achieve their tasks, their roles and their responsibilities within the municipal administration. In this context, the information can be presented in different forms: video, pictures, numeric data and alarms. It is provided by different measurement and monitoring instruments installed on some system’s elements to be supervised. Preliminary implementation results show that this specification can lead to an intelligent and generic system which effectively and efficiently supports decision making related to managing urban infrastructures.
