For a finitely generated group [Formula: see text] acting on a metric space [Formula: see text], Roe defined the warped space [Formula: see text], which one can view as a kind of large scale quotient of [Formula: see text] by the action of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we generalize this notion to the setting of actions of arbitrary groups on large scale spaces. We then restrict our attention to what we call coarsely discontinuous actions by coarse equivalences and show that for such actions the group [Formula: see text] can be recovered as an appropriately defined automorphism group [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text] satisfies a large scale connectedness condition. We show that for a coarsely discontinuous action of a countable group [Formula: see text] on a discrete bounded geometry metric space [Formula: see text] there is a relation between the maximal Roe algebras of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], namely that there is a ∗-isomorphism [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the ideal of compact operators. If [Formula: see text] has Property A and [Formula: see text] is amenable, then [Formula: see text] has Property A, and thus the maximal Roe algebra and full crossed product can be replaced by the usual Roe algebra and reduced crossed product respectively in the above equation.

Fatal fire disasters in commercial and hotel buildings and social effort not to repeat disasters from the 1930s to the beginning of the 21st Century in Japan are reviewed to verify what have been learnt from fire disasters in modern public buildings. Shirokiya Department fire in 1932, Japan's first significant fatal fire in commercial building, evoked social awareness of fire safety in high-rise buildings, and led to the requirements for general framework for the limitation of fire damage in large scale building such as fire separation for the restriction of damaged area, protected escape staircases, and sprinklers. However, procrastination in introducing smoke control and floor-to-floor fire and smoke separation is believed to have become a background for the frequent fatal fires in public buildings in the 1960s. Experience of fatal fires in hotel buildings from the 1960s to the mid-1980s led to the introduction of labeling of fire safety and qualification of fire safety manager for hotels, which became the main background for exterminating fatal hotel fires.
