| الوصف: | This paper proposes pandemic mitigation vaccination policies for Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) based on two compact mixed integer programming (MIP) models of the distance-based critical node detection problem (DCNDP). Our main focus is on two variants of the DCNDP that seek to minimize the number of connections with lengths of at most one (1-DCNDP) and two (2-DCNDP). A polyhedral study for the 1-DCNDP is conducted, and new aggregated inequalities are provided for the 2-DCNDP. The computational experiments show that the 2-DCNDP with aggregated inequalities outperforms the one with disaggregated inequalities for graphs with a density of at least 0.5%. We also study the strategic vaccine allocation problem as a real-world application of the DCNDP and conduct a set of computational experiments on a simulated contact network of NL. Our computational results demonstrate that the DCNDP-based strategies can have a better performance in comparison with the real-world strategies implemented during COVID-19. |
