In healthcare, the planning and the management of resources are challenging as there are
always many complex and stochastic factors in both demand and supply. Simulation …

This paper is a literature review of ambulance deployment and redeployment modelling
approaches in emergency medical services (EMS): mathematical programming, queuing …

This paper aims at solving three important and challenging issues:(i) How to build a 0-1
mixed integer linear program-based distribution center location model for large-scale …

Emergency medical service (EMS) is important for rescuing victims suffering from life-
threatening illnesses or accidents, and is highly time-sensitive by nature. Many uncertain …

Every patient should have equal access to fast and qualified assistance by emergency
medical services (EMS). Most location planning models for EMS only consider efficiency …

Abstract Conventional Digital Twins (DTs) in smart manufacturing rely on complex and time-
intensive simulation models, hindering real-time DT-based decision-making. However, the …

Abstract Ambulance Location Problem (ALP) is studied in the field of covering road crashes,
which are often rare and random in nature. On the account of rareness, crashes should be …

Purpose The purpose of this study is to discuss the principles and factors that influence the
site selection of emergency medical facilities for public health emergencies. This paper …

A well-designed emergency medical services (EMS) system is essential to provide the best
possible quality of care to patients in emergencies. Exogenous effects, such as demographic …

Simulation-based metamodels or surrogate models are simplified models that capture the
relationship between inputs and outputs of the simulation model. The analytical expression …
