Description

Xin Wu, Kai Zou, and Wenjie Kang plan emergency supply allocation for disasters in a 2026 paper. Where relief goods go decides survival, rescue speed, and how fast order returns, and demand after a quake or flood is never known in advance.

Older models plan once and treat money, buying, transport, and need as separate worlds. Their framework joins three roles: deciders who fund, executors who buy and ship, and the affected people who need goods. The plan adapts in stages as real demand arrives, guarded against the worst plausible case at each step. A math trick turns the hard robust model into a linear one that standard solvers can run. An earthquake case study tests it.
