摘要

在新冠肺炎疫情在意大利爆发的背景下，本研究旨在借助运筹学技术帮助应对新冠肺炎的传播。特别是，我们提出了一个数学程序来模拟确定意大利地区必须进行多少诊断测试以最大限度地提高整体疾病检测能力的问题。我们的方法的一个重要特点是它的简单性:我们使用的数据很容易获得，并且可以使用标准的优化工具来解决问题。将我们的方法应用于意大利的案例时得到的结果似乎是有希望的。

Effectively managing diagnostic tests to monitor the COVID-19 outbreak in Italy

Urged by the outbreak of the COVID-19 in Italy, this study aims at helping to tackle the spread of the disease by resorting to operations research techniques. In particular, we propose a mathematical program to model the problem of establishing how many diagnostic tests the Italian regions must perform in order to maximize the overall disease detection capability. An important feature of our approach is its simplicity: data we resort to are easy to obtain and one can employ standard optimization tools to address the problem. The results we obtain when applying our method to the Italian case seem promising.
