Online optimisation for ambulance routing in disaster response with partial or no information on victim conditions (2023)
Journal Article
Shiri, D., Akbari, V., & Tozan, H. (2023). Online optimisation for ambulance routing in disaster response with partial or no information on victim conditions. Computers and Operations Research, 159, Article 106314. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cor.2023.106314

In response to mass casualty incidents, medical aid must be provided to numerous victims synchronously under challenging circumstances including uncertainty about the condition of victims. Therefore, it is essential to have decision support tools whi... Read More about Online optimisation for ambulance routing in disaster response with partial or no information on victim conditions.

Minimizing total weighted latency in home healthcare routing and scheduling with patient prioritization (2023)
Journal Article
Akbari, V., Sadati, I., Salman, F. S., & Shiri, D. (2023). Minimizing total weighted latency in home healthcare routing and scheduling with patient prioritization. OR Spectrum, 45, 807-852. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00291-023-00713-3

We study a home healthcare routing and scheduling problem, where multiple healthcare service provider teams should visit a given set of patients at their homes. The problem involves assigning each patient to a team and generating the routes of the te...
