the ability to respond quickly to future calls is considerably compromised. The available ambulances are typically relocated to reestablish maximal coverage. We present a two-stage stochastic optimization model for the ambulance redeployment problem that minimizes the number of relocations over a planning horizon while maintaining an acceptable service level. We conduct computational testing based on the real historical data from the Region of Waterloo Emergency Medical Services. The results

Step 2: Generate a random number between 0 and 1 by using the random number generator in the programming software and then denoted as r.\\ Step 3: Make the generated random number r connected with the cumulative distribution function (CDF) for every parameter to get a set of deterministic values for parameters in $a_{ij}$, $b_{ij}$ and $c_{ij}$.\\ Following in Figure 3.3 is an example showing how to set a random value for a parameter.\\ Step 4: Replace the interval parameters $a_{ij}$, $b_{ij}$

is a set of quantitative tools used by the managers to take decisions and formulate their business strategies. The basic objective of this course is to provide an understanding of the important techniques used in decision making. A certain level of mathematical hands-on expertise will be required to ensure understanding of the tools in operations research. At the end of the course you are expected to • Formulate real world decision making situations as mathematical optimisation problems •
