The available ambulances are typically relocated to reestablish maximal coverage. We present a two-stage stochastic optimization model for the ambulance redeployment problem that minimizes the number of relocations over a planning horizon while maintaining an acceptable service level. We conduct computational testing based on the real historical data from the Region of Waterloo Emergency Medical Services. The results show that the optimal relocation strategies can be computed within 40 s of computational time for a desired service level of 90%. & 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

...Gathering Research Data Stormy Magiera CJA 334 08/13/2012 Jody Pennington Gathering Research Data There are many data gathering research methods that can be used in criminal justice. For the purpose of this paper, I have chosen the e-mail survey method. The researched proposed is job satisfaction among police officers, specifically patrol officers. Patrol officers are often overlooked and it is forgotten that patrol is the backbone of the police department. The goal is to target what most dissatisfies a patrol officer during the work week in regards to human resources. The type of interview structure used will be an email questionnaire multiple choice survey. This will ensure every patrolman participates and multiple choices will provide graphical results. Patrol officers are the beginning and often the end to every criminal case in America. From the start of making the criminal offense report, to making the arrest and then to testifying in court, the patrolman handles almost every case from start to finish. Yes, detectives play a role in most cases, but without the patrolman working the street; it is unlikely crime reduction would occur. It is important to know and understand what makes the patrolman satisfied and dissatisfied while on the job. If the majority of patrolmen are dissatisfied at work, crime reduction suffers. Not many are willing to work while unhappy yet alone risk their life for unhappiness. It is the responsibility of the department...

By utilizing up to date equipment improves the efficiency and effectiveness of how well or poorly it will impact the officers safety. Unlike years ago when law enforcement didn't have some of the equipment provided to them today, it has increased its mobility through telephone and radio (Law enforcement in the 21st century). In the first stage (1881-1945) a gentleman by the name of August Vollmer established the first forensic laboratory, criminal investigators had access to an increasing array of technological expertise that continued to increase exponentially throughout the development of law enforcement (Law enforcement in the 21st century). Some examples of technology used in Vollmer's crime laboratory was the use of the polygraph, as well as fingerprint and handwriting classification systems (Seaskate 1998). According to Soulliere (1999), these early technological advances impacted the police organization by the development of increasingly complex police organizations through the creation of specialized sections within large police organizations to handle the new technology, such as radio communications and forensic labs (law enforcement in the 21st century). Other technology that enhanced from police organizations ability to function was the...

... Abstract This paper was supposed to be a group project, but there was no participation with other group members so I was given permission by Prof. McKinney to submit this paper as an individual Project. This paper will show why the absence of accurate job information created a problem. It will also show what content should be in a job description for the human resource assistant to prevent future problems. The absence of accurate job information created a problem because there was no written job description. In this case the job description was oral and had nothing to do with the tasks that were to be performed. Virginia was not hired to be receptionist, but was put into the role of relief receptionist. This in turn led to her having to cover whole days when the receptionist was ill. She felt the low-level tasks she was asked to perform did not compare with their degree of knowledge such as her college degree or management concepts. Virginia felt that her job was not significant and she did not feel this job was meaningful. This resulted in lack of motivation and dissatisfaction on Virginia's part. In order to prevent problems, the job description for Human Resource assistance needed to contain the following information. HR job descriptions vary by location, size, and structure of the organization. In large organizations, in large cities, HR assistance might have specific duties, but in smaller organizations they could...
