Recent optimization models and trends in location, relocation, and dispatching of emergency medical vehicles
TL;DR: Modern modeling approaches to address problems related to ambulance fleet management, particularly those related to vehicle location and relocation, as well as dispatching decisions are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distributionally robust optimization of an emergency medical service station location and sizing problem with joint chance constraints
TL;DR: A distributionally robust model for optimizing the location, number of ambulances and demand assignment in an EMS system by minimizing the expected total cost is proposed and guarantees that the probability of satisfying the maximum concurrent demand in the whole system is larger than a predetermined reliability level.

Logistics for Emergency Medical Service systems
Melanie Reuter-Oppermann,Pieter L. van den Berg,Pieter L. van den Berg,Pieter L. van den Berg,Julie Leanne Vile +4 more
TL;DR: An overview of logistical problems arising for EMS providers is presented, demonstrating how some of these problems are related and intertwined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-time ambulance redeployment approach to improve service coverage with fair and restricted workload for EMS providers
TL;DR: A real-time approach to maximize coverage with minimum possible total travel time, while restricting accumulated workload for EMS personnel as well as providing more evenly distributed workload between ambulances in a shift is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strategic ambulance location for heterogeneous regions
Håkon Leknes,Eirik Skorge Aartun,Henrik Andersson,Marielle Christiansen,Tobias Andersson Granberg +4 more
TL;DR: A new mixed integer model is presented for the location/allocation of ambulance stations and the allocation of ambulances to these stations especially suitable for regions with heterogeneous demand and multiple performance measures.

The maximal covering location problem
TL;DR: The use of a maximal service distance as a measure of the value of a given locational configuration has been discussed at length by Toregas and ReVelle 1 who show that it is an important surrogate measurement for the value.
