Abstract Emergency medical service (EMS)are of great importance to saving people’s lives from emergent accidents and diseases by efficiently picking up patients using ambulances. We propose a data driven real time ambulance redeployment approach that redeploys an ambulance to a proper station it becomes available, so as to optimize the transporting capability of an EMS system. Many possibility that EMS cannot be accessible by the patients because it went for another destination and not making the closest EMS to dispatch. The crucial moments in dispatching an ambulance correctly with the least response time in case of trains or other threatening situations will contribute and determine patient survival. The performance of our real time approach is evaluated by a discrete event simulation developed for a large real dataset and compared with two approaches. EMS are concerned with providing maximum possible coverage in the service area.

Key Words: Emergency medical services, ambulance redeployment, data and knowledge management

1.2Problem Definition

The moving ability of an EMS framework can be characterized in numerous ways, for example the typical pickup season of EMSdemands[2],[7], theproportionofEMSdemands withpickuptimesinsidea given time edge(for example 10minutes) [16],andsoforth[17].Inthiswork,weutilizethetypicalpickupseasonofpatientstomeantheshippingcapacityofanEMS framework, leaving others as the measurements in our assessment (see Section 5.3). Officially, the shipping capacity is signifiedbygandisfiguredoutas (1) whereQisthequantityofEMSdemandsshowingupinquiteawhileperiod(forexampleonemonth).

Therescuevehicleredeploymentissueistoredeployanemergencyvehicletoastationafteritopensup.Fortheemergency vehicle redeployment issue, related works can be partitioned into three classes. The first is the static emergency vehicle redeployment strategy [3], [7], [17]. The static techniques initially select a base (home) station for every emergency vehicle, and afterward when an emergency vehicle opens up, it is straightforwardly redeployed to its base station. Obviously, static strategiescan'tcatchthetime differingstatusofanEMSframework,includingthespatialandtransientappearanceexampleof EMS demands, the progressively evolving status (for example direness) of stations, and the dynamical status of ambulances (countingtheongoingaccessibleemergencyvehicleandotherinvolvedambulances).
