| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this dissertation is to synthesize a methodology to prescribe a
strategic design of a surveillance system to provide the required level of surveillance for
ports and waterways. The method of approach to this problem is to formulate a linear
integer programming model to prescribe a strategic surveillance system design (SSD) for
ports or waterways, to devise branch-and-price decomposition (B | en |
