Across the globe, wildfire-related destruction appears to be worsening despite increased fire
suppression expenditure. At the same time, wildfire management is becoming increasingly …

A central challenge in disaster risk management (DRM) is that there are key dependencies
and uncertainty between the decisions made at the mitigation, preparedness, response, and …

The resources available to tackle an epidemic infection are usually limited, while the time
and effort required to control it are increasing functions of the starting time of the containment …

We consider the problem of, given a landscape represented by a gridded network and a fire
ignition location, deciding where to locate the available fire suppression resources to …

In this study, we consider scheduling problems with convex resource dependent processing
times and deteriorating jobs, in which the processing time of a job is a function of its starting …

The asset protection problem is encountered where an uncontrollable fire is sweeping
across a landscape comprising important infrastructure assets. Protective activities by teams …

Incident management teams (IMTs) are responsible for managing the response to wildfires.
One of the objectives of IMTs is the protection of assets and infrastructure. In this paper, we …

Wildland-urban interface wildfires have been a significant threat in many countries. This
paper presents an integer two-stage stochastic goal programming model for comprehensive …

In many realistic production situations, a job processed later consumes more time than the
same job when it is processed earlier. Production scheduling in such an environment is …

We consider the single-machine time-dependent scheduling problem with linearly
deteriorating jobs arriving over time. Each job i is associated with a release time ri and a …
