     increasing vulnerability of metropolitan areas to earthquake and the very low probability level at which short term earthquake forecasting is possible make earthquake early warning methods (eew) the main viable alternative for effective risk reduction in cities. preventive actions, such as retrofitting and building and the diffusion of construction codes, are of course essential. they are not sufficient. a substantial proportion of the population in areas of higher earthquake hazard still reside in buildings that do not meet modern earthquake resistant standards, and cannot currently be strengthened in an economically viable manner. as demonstrated in japan eew has the potential of significantly contributing to reduce individual vulnerability of urban population to earthquakes. future research on eew should be focused on its implementation to protect lifelines, infrastructures and strategic buildings, and it should include training of administrators and people who can fully exploit the technological advantages offered by eew systems. in particular it should foresee extensive cost-benefit analysis for each potential application, the identification and solution of legal problems (such as liability in the event of false or missed alarms), education and training, both for mitigation and response, as well as detection and processing within 1 s of the first seismic wave arrivals. further objectives include the development of people-centred eew, specialized it and decision making support systems, integration of sensors, communications and decision making systems, integration into programs of eco-sustainable development, and integration with other ew systems (all hazard systems).
