"The Design of a Dynamic Emergency Response Management Information 
Systems (DERMIS)" by Murray Turoff, Michael Chumer, Bartel Van de 
Walle, and Xiang Yao

<http://eies.njit.edu/~turoff/Papers/dermisfinal11304singlespace.htm>

A lot of this paper seems like it might to bear directly on the work 
of the OASIS Emergency Management Technical Committee and especially 
the Infrastructure Subcommittee.  For example:

"Design Principle 3 - Open Multi - Directional Communication:  A 
system such as this must be viewed as an open and flat communication 
process among all those involved in reacting to the disaster... "

  and also

"Design Principle 4 - Content as Address:  the content of a piece of 
information is what determines the address. "

But there's a bunch more... definitely worth a read, IMHO.
