Multiobjective Based Resource Allocation and Scheduling for Postdisaster Management Using IoT

Abstract EN

Disaster is an uncertain phenomenon that arises due to natural as well as man-made calamities.

Disaster often causes a high degree of destruction, especially in a very densely populated region.

To handle such a situation, efficient resource management strategies are required.

Resource management is the most crucial phase of disaster management.

Efficient and in-time allocation of resources is very important; otherwise, it may result in more fatalities.

In this context, we propose the resource management algorithm, which deals with both over- and underdemand for resources.

Resource management requires efficient resource allocation, and in case of overdemand for resources, it must be followed by resource scheduling.

In this paper, we introduce a resource allocation technique which is based on multiple objectives having a different set of constraints.

We also propose the resource scheduling algorithm based on various parameters.

The proposed algorithm uses multiobjective theory for resource allocation which is followed by the implementation of priority-based scheduling technique, in the case of overdemand for resources.

Our proposed methods are compared to the existing approaches in the literature.

From the simulation results, it is clear that our methods perform optimum resource allocation and scheduling operations.
