Introduction

The 5th International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies for Disaster Management (ICT-DM’2018) aims to bring together academics and practitioners who are involved in emergency services, ad hoc planning, disaster recovery, etc., to learn about the latest research developments, share experiences and information about this area and develop recommendations. Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that present original unpublished research on using ICTs for detection, prevention, preparation, response and recovery of disasters. There will also be invited presentations by experts from academia, industry, and government as well as special sessions dedicated to case studies, demonstrations and experiences based on pragmatic approaches. This way, the conference will provide a forum for supporting and encouraging both academic researchers, as well as practitioners involved in applied-focused research. The conference accepts three types of submissions, specifically full papers (5 to 8 pages), short papers (3 to 4 pages), and posters & demos (1 to 2 pages). The presented full and short papers will be submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore. The posters & demos will not be included in the conference proceedings.
