Abstract
The 'alert' is to provide a signal or information beforehand, in order to prepare against situations in which abrupt incidents or disasters are expected. In other words, the purpose of alert is to help people or respondents to take precautions against and quickly cope with disasters or incidents, before those actually occur. This paper draws requirements of alert system from definitions of the alert and cases of it home and abroad. Following requirements of alert system are derived to allow subjects responsible for alert issue to quickly handle changes of situations; 1) identification of subjects responsible for alert issue, 2) use of definite terms regarding alert levels, for prompt actions, and 3) distinct separations among alert levels. This paper suggests improvement directions by extracting several problems of National Crisis Alert System according to such requirements.
