Modeling and Simulating for Emergency Medical Service System Optimizing Based on Discrete Event System Theory

Abstract

Due to the complexity and randomness of emergency demands, it is difficult to describe and analyze the Emergency Medical Service Systems (EMSS) just by certain modeling. Therefore, a stochastic modeling and simulating method for EMSS optimizing is proposed based on the Discrete Event System theory. With a fictive and stochastic medical emergency scenario, the relevant simulation model is constructed with the FLEXSIM software quickly and explicitly. And by simulating and analyzing, it is easily to discover the bottlenecks and to optimize the EMSS system.
