Optimal allocation of Pediatric Emergency Centers was simulated using both Min-Sum model and Min-Max model, based on the travel distance and child population of Hokkaido prefecture, Japan. Our result should be helpful to select the optimal number and allocation of PECs in the actual scene of decision making, where the financial restriction exists.
