Abstract

Recall the Emergency Service Coordinator (ESC) for a military base is interested in locating the base’s three ambulances to maximize the residents that can be reached within 8 min in emergency situations. The base is divided into six zones and the average time required to travel from one region to the next under semi-perfect conditions are summarized in the following Table 4.1. This is equivalent to the military placing evacuation hospitals in certain locations.
