Adaptive iterative destruction construction heuristic for the firefighters timetabling problem
Résumé
Every year, wildfires accentuated by global warming, cause economic and ecological losses, and often, human casualties. Increasing operating capacity of firefighter crews is of importance to better face the forest fire period that yearly occurs. In this study, we investigate the real-world firefighters timetabling problem (FFTP) of the INFOCA institution in Andalusia (Spain) with the aim of increasing operating capacity while taking into account work regulation constraints. We propose an Integer Linear Programming model and an Adaptive Iterative Destruction Construction Heuristic solution approache to address the problem. We report on experiments performed on datasets generated using real-world data of the INFOCA institution. The work was initiated as part of the GEO-SAFE project.
