Abstract

Global Red Alert: Few can forget the images broadcasted around the world of damage caused after Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast and by the tsunami in South Asia. With the increasing occurrence of natural and man-made disasters that leave massive devastation in their wake, quicker response and improved coordinated humanitarian relief efforts are needed to get populations in crisis the aid that they need. A recently established Center for Humanitarian Relief Logistics at the Stewart School of ISyE seeks to develop advanced response methods and technologies that will have a global impact.
