Contributors: S. Rodriguez-Cartes n , Y. Zhang  n, M. Mayorga  n, J. Swann  n & B. Allaire *

Ed(s): M. Coffee

topics (OpenAlex): Virology and Viral Diseases; COVID-19 epidemiological studies; Vaccine Coverage and Hesitancy
TL;DR: Findings indicate that RCV introduction could avert between 86,000 and 535,000 CRS births, preventing 2.5 to 15.8 million disability-adjusted life years and reinforces the need for global action to strengthen immunization programs. (via Semantic Scholar)

A simulation-optimization approach for the facility location and vehicle assignment problem for firefighters using a loosely coupled spatio-temporal arrival process

Rodriguez, S. A., Fuente, R. A. D., & Aguayo, M. M. (2021, March 24). Computers & Industrial Engineering, Vol. 7.

author keywords: Facility Location Problem; Simulation-optimization; Spatio-temporal simulation
topics (OpenAlex): Facility Location and Emergency Management; Evacuation and Crowd Dynamics; Transportation Planning and Optimization
TL;DR: The main results show that the proposed spatio-temporal sampling method achieves a better representation of the emergency arrival process than those generally used in literature, and the resulting utilization parameters are statistically different than those produced by a Hypercube Queueing Model.

author keywords: Emergency service systems; Facility location problem; Maximal expected coverage; Hypercube queueing model; Geographic information systems
topics (OpenAlex): Facility Location and Emergency Management; Urban and Freight Transport Logistics; Evacuation and Crowd Dynamics
TL;DR: This work presents a mixed-integer linear programming model that considers vehicles average utilization to compute expected demand coverage, and proposes an iterative procedure as a solving method, where a Hypercube Queueing Model is used to compute the utilization of the vehicles.
