Decision making using system modeling
A closer analysis of chapter 5 shows that the author highlights an open-source software tool, EMA workbench, that has the capability of undertaking EMA and ESDMA modeling. The EMA workbench can be instrumental in creating a model that can serve a great deal in developing a policy for a smart city arrangement. One of the policy areas where EMA can be instrumental is in regard to traffic light placement. In this case, the workbench can be used to help in the execution of movement lights, especially in the face of crisis, and this will be enabled by smart data science technology system. In this case, an android gadget with speaking capabilities can be incorporated with the movement lights. The integration of speaking capabilities in the movement lights will help in reducing reaction time in the face of crises.
Apart from traffic light placement, EMA can also be used in surveillance camera coverage. Such kind of innovation will have the capacity to gather information and, at the same time, disseminate such in real-time. The use of surveillance cameras that are modeled by EMA will help in forestalling wrongdoings, thus empowering the legislature in their course of serving the general population. Besides, the software will have the capacity to utilize CCTV at any place within the city as long as such locality has a keen city foundation.
