Optimizing the Effectiveness of Organ Allocation

A Stochastic Optimization Approach to a Location-Allocation Problem of Organ Transplant Centers

Decision-making concerning thelocation of critical resource on the geographical network is important in many industries.In the healthcare system,these decisions include location of emergency and preventive care. The decisions of location play a crucial role due to determining the travel time between supply and de//////mand points and response time in emergencies.Organs are considered as highly ...

A Comprehensive Mathematical Model for Designing an Organ Transplant Supply Chain Network under Uncertainty

One of the most important issues in area of health and hygiene is location-allocation of organ harvesting centers and transplant centers according to coordination between supply and demand. In this paper, a mathematical model is presented for location-allocation of organ harvesting centers and transplant centers. The proposed model does not only minimize the present value of the total system co...

Optimizing for Change: Mixed-Initiative Resource Allocation with the AMC Barrel Allocator

Most real world planning and scheduling domains are only partially amenable to optimized solutions due to size of the solution space and due to the impossibility of fully optimizing a problem that changes over time. In addition, even an “optimal” solution to a problem is of little use if it is not comprehensible to end users of the system. In this paper we describe the AMC Barrel Allocator, a r...
