Optimization in Assistive Technology programs: case study "Banc de Moviments" in Barcelona
H. Ramalhinho, J. de Armas, J. Rodríguez-Pereira, B. Vieira
The ageing population worldwide is rising and, as their autonomy tends to decrease, they will need support to perform their daily activities in a joyful and independent way. Assistive Technology (AT) programs aim to collect donated products, store them, and make them accessible to this population. In this work, we analyze the AT operations, based on Circular Economy perspective, and develop mathematical based tools to help managers to make better decisions. These tools support decisions on location, inventory, and routing problems and are used by a social program in Barcelona, Spain.
Keywords: assistive technology; logistic operations; mathematical programming models; aging populations’ care
