• A literature review on the vehicle routing problem with multiple depots 

      Montoya Torres, Jairo R.; López Franco, Julián; Nieto Isaza, Santiago; Felizzola Jiménez, Heriberto; Herazo Padilla, Nilson Sebastian (Universidad de la Costa, 2015-02-15)
      The location routing problem with stochastic transportation cost and vehicle travel speeds is considered in this paper. A hybrid solution procedure based on Ant Colony Optimisation (ACO) and Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) ...
    • Ambulances deployment problems: categorization, evolution and dynamic problems review 

      Neira Rodado, Dionicio; Escobar, John Willmer; McClean, Sally (MDPI AGSwitzerland, 2022-02-03)
      In this paper, an analytic review of the recent methodologies tackling the problem of dynamic allocation of ambulances was carried out. Considering that state-of-the-art is moving to deal with more extensive and dynamic ...
    • Improvement of Barranquilla's EMS response time with the use of GIS 

      Brugés-Ballesteros, Laurina; Mora-Oñate, Gabriel; Neira-Rodado, Dionicio; Torregroza-Espinosa, Ana (Elsevier BVNetherlands, 2021)
      The global emergency medical services (EMS) are complex systems characterized by significant differences in service providers, care pathways, patient care, and quality of care indicators. Therefore, analyzing and improving ...
    • Locating sea ambulances to respond to emergencies of vulnerable populations. Case of Cartagena bay in Colombia 

      Coronado-Hernandez, Jairo R.; Rico-Carrillo, Marly; Rico-Carrillo, Katherine; Zapateiro, Orlando (Springer International Publishing, 2021-09-17)
      Emergency services are an important element for healthcare assistance because its rapid response to transportation is essential for saving lives. Cartagena de Indias presents some weaknesses in terms of covering the demand ...
    • Resource allocation model for a computer system 

      Sánchez, Joaquín F.; Ospina, Juan P.; COLLAZOS MORALES, CARLOS ANDRES; Avendaño Delgado, Henry Leonardo; De-La-Hoz-Franco, Emiro; Comas Gonzalez, Zhoe; Landero, Vanesa (Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2019)
      This article describes a simulation for resource allocation. As a particular case, it describes how would be the assignment in an ad hoc network. We present the results of a simulation allocating resources from one system ...
