Summary:Abstract: "The problem of logistics and resource management in disease control projects in the developing world can hardly be understated. One problem that arises is the occurrence [sic] of regional imbalances in supply. Such imbalances can seriously compromise the effectiveness of such programs. A prototype system is described, based on an order-based plan generator and a class of modern combinatorial optimisation techniques, which recommends an implementable plan for the redistribution of available resources to minimise such shortages for real-world situations."
