  摘要：In humanitarian operations, the amount of funding received and the timing and predictability of funding strongly influence program performance. In this paper, we study the problem of allocating inventory procured using donor funding to patients in different health states over a finite horizon with the objective of minimizing the number of disease-adjusted life periods lost. The funding received and the number of new patients of different health states entering the program in every period could...

Rigorous research to understand the underlying causes of these stockouts is lacking. To this end, we study the relationship between The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria and its grant recipients. Specifically, we leverage historical fund disbursement and drug procurement data fro...

Further, health care delivery in underserved communities is a context that is often characterized by primitive and poor record keeping, data scarcity and ...
