For postdisaster management, rescue and recovery operations are very critical. It is desired that the rescue and recovery operation should be handled through efficient resource management to minimize the postdisaster effects in terms of human loss and other types of damage. Resource management requires addressing various challenging issues like scheduling and monitoring of the resources which need real time information of various activities or events occurring anytime, anywhere, and anyplace. To satisfy such requirements, Internet of Things, an advanced upcoming technology, can be utilized for resource monitoring and scheduling. In this context, we propose resource scheduling algorithm for the postdisaster management. As mentioned above various tasks of rescue and recovery operation should be carried out with different priority and there should not be deadlock while availing the resources. In our approach, we estimate the waiting time using queuing theory for the availability of the resources for different activities that are to be performed at various locations. The simulation results of the proposed method are analyzed using different standard parameters like resource utilization and the waiting time for different activities. The proposed method is further visualized through real time annotation of resources and activities represented with the help of Google maps using android based application on the smartphone. The proposed algorithm is further compared in terms of computational complexity and fairness analysis for the effective utilization of the available resources.
