The studies have delved into qualitative Operational Research like Problem Structuring, Critical Systems Thinking, Soft Systems Methodology, and Qualitative System Dynamics, and also quantitative techniques such as Monte Carlo Simulation, Discrete-event Simulation, and System Dynamics. These techniques have been applied for review and assessment of emergency services, for policy formulation and for facilitating broader public engagement in emergency preparedness and response. Furthermore, this book presents rigorous reviews on the applications of Operational Research in the wider healthcare context. This volume focuses mainly on emergency planning at the strategic level, whereas volume 1 focuses on planning at the operational level. The OR Essentials series presents a unique cross-section of high quality research work fundamental to understanding contemporary issues and research across a range of Operational Research (OR) topics. It brings together some of the best research papers from the highly respected journals of the Operational Research Society, also published by Palgrave Macmillan. 410 0$aOR Essentials 606 $aBusiness mathematics 606 $aManagement information systems 606 $aProduction management 606 $aOperations research 606 $aDecision making 606 $aLeadership 606 $aEmergency medicine 606 $aBusiness Mathematics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/523000 606 $aBusiness Information Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522030 606 $aOperations Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/519000 606 $aOperations Research/Decision Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/521000 606 $aBusiness Strategy/Leadership$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515010 606 $aEmergency Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H22000 615 0$aBusiness mathematics. 615 0$aManagement information systems. 615 0$aProduction management. 615 0$aOperations research. 615 0$aDecision making. 615 0$aLeadership. 615 0$aEmergency medicine. 615 14$aBusiness Mathematics. 615 24$aBusiness Information Systems. 615 24$aOperations Management. 615 24$aOperations Research/Decision Theory. 615 24$aBusiness Strategy/Leadership. 615 24$aEmergency Medicine. 676 $a330.0151 702 $aMustafee$b Navonil$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254934403321 996 $aOperational Research for Emergency Planning in Healthcare: Volume 2$92095781 997 $aUNINA
