Abstract:This chapter discusses a simulation model for conducting workload analyses of police forces. Due to the high operational heterogeneity and variability, determining reliable profiles for resource utilization and establishing their relationship to response times is a challenging task in and of itself that requires an adequate consideration of several sources of stochastic influence. Prior approaches from police practice mainly consider static ratios (e.g. resources per number of inhabitants or calls for service)… Show more
