Description
Summary:In the event of a disaster where there is a question what community should we first provide resources to?a new prioritization algorithm which suggests a ranking of barangays inside a local government unit for resource allocation should be provided to the community. In this context, two algorithms have been proposed based on two aspects, which are human nutrition, and economic factors. These two factors have been considered based on how these affect the vulnerability of a community. Presented in this research as an implementation of the said algorithms in the municipality of Lian, Batangas. The methods of testing that were performed to gauge the reliability of the algorithms results were through user acceptance and simulated testing using the APARA reusable libraries. The simulated testing was made possible through the creation of reusable Java libraries of the prioritization algorithms. The results were able to generate the priority levels which changed according to the simulated tests performed. However, some results were found to have inconsistencies, therefore determining that the algorithm are non-replicable, but can be used for further testing in other community scenarios.
