Optimizing Maritime SAR Response Through Dynamic Resource Allocation

Maritime emergencies rarely wait for calm conditions, and neither does the demand for rescue resources. The 2S-DLAS model tackles this head-on by treating demand locations as moving targets, shaped by ocean currents and uncertain timing. It optimizes base placement, resource allocation, and platform routing in one integrated framework, while explicitly accounting for travel-time variability and navigational limits. The IALNS algorithm delivers computational efficiency without sacrificing solution quality. Real cases from the South China Sea validate the approach.
