Disaster Crisis Management System Modeling and Evaluation of Control Strategies and System Resilience, Project “Industrial Doctorates”, Action Code: 16289, EMPRACTIS Ε.Ε., Technical University of Crete, 2024-2025  
EMPRACTIS in collaboration with the Technical University of Crete, participates and co-funds a research project for the implementation of an “Industrial Doctorate” with a PhD candidate. The main research objective is the development of an innovative model for the analysis and evaluation of control strategies and the resilience of crisis management systems in response to disasters caused by natural and man-made hazards.  
The project focuses on the use of workflow management techniques (such as workflow management systems, discrete event simulation, agent-based modeling and simulation) applying advanced simulation tools to support the dynamic adaptation and optimization of emergency response plans.  To further investigate control strategies and human errors, the project incorporates methodologies from the field of Cognitive Ergonomics.  
The ultimate goal is to enhance the adaptability and effectiveness of control strategies and workflows in crisis management, thereby strengthening system resilience and improving emergency preparedness. The project is implemented within the framework of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan “Greece 2.0”, under Pillar 3: Employment, Skills, and Social Cohesion, with funding from the European Union and the Greece’ s Recovery and Resilience Facility.
