Introduction
e outbreak of COVID-19 at the beginning of 2020 resulted in a significant increase in demand for emergency supplies worldwide. is unprecedented situation severely affected the coordination of demand and supply due to inaccurate decision-making and inefficient distribution of emergency supplies. With the exponential increase in the number of confirmed COVID-19 patients, the existing emergency system became quickly ineffective.
is resulted in the shortage of vital emergency supplies in some affected regions, caused significant pressure on the emergency workers, and further aggravated the difficulty of containing the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic. e emergency services in the epidemic are defined by the National Disaster Medical System (NDMS) as the set of urgent healthcare or medical services required in response to significant/catastrophic incidents, such as natural disasters, significant outbreaks of infectious diseases, and bioterrorist attacks [1]. Although epidemics inevitably happen, their spread can be effectively contained by building an effective emergency logistics system. is paper proposes a cloud computing-based platform to incorporate Big Data, informatization, and intelligence to address the emergency supplies distribution problem in the affected regions. Our objective is to optimize the distribution of emergency supplies to accelerate epidemic relief. Our approach is to integrate the supply and demand information of the emergency supplies on the cloud platform. is reduces the opacity of this information in the emergency logistics services, the asymmetry of supply and demand cat egories, and the uncertainty of distribution. Using the cloud platform, the Big Data, including the emergency supplies, demand points, distribution vehicles and supply, and demand information of different emergency supplies, are processed. e cloud platform then uses these data to optimize the connection of each node in the emergency logistics network while effectively reducing the cost of emergency logistics. is approach enables efficient and intelligent emergency supplies distribution.
Emergency logistics is referred to the logistics service that responds to disasters (e.g., H1N1 influenza, SARS virus, Ebola virus, earthquake, and terrorist attack) [1]. To optimize the distribution of the supplies within the required time-frame in the emergency logistics, various technologies are used, for example, system dynamics [2], heuristic algorithm [3][4][5][6][7], and Internet of ings technology [8]. In the existing works, the optimization of emergency logistics is mainly focused on time [9][10][11] and cost [6,[12][13][14][15]. However, the distribution of supplies for COVID-19 is different from the traditional emergency logistics and has unique features [16]. We incorporate the unique features of the disaster demand points in COVID-19 [16] and adopt a genetic algorithm to optimize the emergency supplies distribution subject to time constraints.
With the development of information technology, information technology has been widely used to improve the logistics process, realizing the logistics informatization from the network to the client. For instance, logistics alliances [17], hyper-network theory [18], and other methods are adopted to combine emergency supply chains to optimize logistics services. Such techniques are based on constructing a comprehensive emergency supplies distribution platform to solve the multipath problem in logistics networks [18][19][20][21]. Big Data plays an essential role in the auxiliary resource scheduling and prevention decision-making of the epidemic. Furthermore, the application of intelligent logistics systems effectively improves the resilience of cities in responding to epidemics [22][23][24]. erefore, establishing a unified transporting and coordination mechanism for the emergency supply chain eliminates the imbalance in the supply of supplies and satisfies the demand for medical treatments [25]. New technologies such as blockchain are also used in designing efficient emergency supply chains. For instance, blockchain technology is used to build an information management model of supply for targeted donation and epidemic prevention supplies, which shows that using blockchain technology improves the performance of emergency logistics in terms of information transparency, credibility, efficiency, and fairness. Furthermore, it enables efficient coordination of emergency supplies supply [26].
e aforementioned research provides significant supporting evidence that the combination of emergency logistics with advanced information technologies, such as blockchain and cloud computing platforms, plays a pivotal role in the efficient design of such systems. Nevertheless, the current literature has not thoroughly investigated the model build and function design of logistics informatization. e build of logistics information platforms in emergency disasters (especially the COVID-19 epidemic) is still rare. So we have combined the supplies demand features of COVID-19 to build an emergency logistics cloud platform.
Furthermore, in some existing works, a combination of cloud computing and logistics is used to an intelligent logistics system based on logistics informatization [27]. Furthermore, in Govindan et al.'s study [23], the benefits of integrating Big Data and cloud technology into the logistics supply chain are investigated. e build of the emergency logistics cloud platform can rely on government departments [28]. e risks associated with network security, user acceptance, information technology updates, and data sharing in the logistics information platforms are managed by devising a ladder risk management mechanism and optimizes the logistics cloud platform's data sharing and information security capabilities [29]. Also, in Lijia's study [30], considering the automatic matching based on the cloud technology functions formulated the optimal dynamic coordination among the users as a multiobjective optimization problem. It is also shown by Fu et al. [31] that cloud technology can optimize the distribution efficiency of the emergency logistics network. Nevertheless, the existing works seldom combine the cloud platform with emergency logistics and rarely realize the efficiency improvement of emergency supplies distribution through the cloud platform. To strengthen the range of the cloud platform and improve the distribution efficiency of emergency supplies, we combine the cloud platform with emergency logistics, design an emergency logistics cloud platform in COVID-19, and improve the functions of the cloud platform.
Recently, some technologies are used in a wide range of intelligent management applications for sustainability, but these methods are rarely used in human space networks for public health. Based on the previous research, the objective of this paper is to optimize the urban emergency supplies distribution plan by the cloud platform. is paper's contributions are as follows. (1) We build a cloud platform to solve the inefficiency of the supply distribution, low distribution efficiency, and high transaction costs caused by information asymmetry in emergency logistics. (2) e proposed cloud platform optimizes the urban emergency supplies distribution routes, ensures the timeliness of emergency supplies, and reduces the cost of emergency supplies.

Emergency Supplies Distribution Design Based on a Cloud Platform
According to the "Trust Report: Cloud Computing in China" jointly released by Alibaba Cloud, IEEE China, and Alibaba Research Institute in 2018, more than 70% of companies have transferred more than half of their businesses to a cloud computing platform. e report also points out that about 43% of companies transferred all their businesses to a cloud computing platform. is report concludes that using cloud computing platforms has become a norm that the Chinese business community has accepted. Based on the existing research on Big Data and informatization in emergency logistics [32][33][34], we built a cloud computing platform for emergency supplies distribution in the epidemic. Compared with the supply distribution model built in the existing literature, this research adopts the cloud computing platform to handle multiple supply and demand information. We then formulate the optimal supplies distribution plan according to the demand for supplies in different epidemic areas. Big Data and cloud computing have been applied to general logistics in intelligent logistics, solving optimization problems, supply chain management, transportation path planning, and supplies distribution [35]. e supply distribution model based on the cloud platform relies on cloud computing, Big Data technology, communication facilities, and various servers and network facilities. e cloud platforms also have unified technical standards, system settings, and protocol specifications [30]. With the Internet as the key, the cloud platform integrates subsystems to form intelligent and complex decision-making systems with various functions and modules [30]. e proposed emergency supplies distribution cloud platform (see Figure 1) comprises an emergency logistics system, a vehicle distribution system, an emergency supplies system, and a core module. In the following, we explain the module's functions and elaborate on the data relationship and transmission routes between them. e emergency logistics system connects the supply requirements of each node to the cloud platform and penetrates each link of the transport. e vehicle distribution system also optimizes the cloud platform supplies distribution model in terms of the information and service flows.
e system also integrates the logistics, capital, and information flow involved in the entire supply chain into the emergency supplies distribution cloud platform. Internet of ings is also used to monitor logistics and transport in realtime. e emergency supplies system combines the emergency supplies provided by various suppliers with the cloud platform to strengthen the supervision of emergency supplies by nonprofit organizations. e core module is composed of 4 parts: communication layer, isolation layer, cloud computing, and Big Data. is module quickly integrates the supply-demand information of the emergency logistics cloud platform and feedback to each node in time and effectively [36].
is results in inefficient operation of the logistics network, reasonable distribution of the supplies, and optimizing the logistics costs. e core module of the cloud platform consists of four parts: communication layer, isolation layer, cloud computing, and Big Data. e communication layer uses the wired communication based on optical cable, metal wire, and wireless communication to transmit the data information of the vehicles, supplies demand, and supplies inventory provided by each node. e isolation layer is to ensure data security. e isolation method mainly comprises network isolation with firewalls between internal and external source networks and data isolation with encryption technology [37]. Cloud computing is then used to store a massive amount of data, which are also classified and analyzed. e processing of big data includes performing secondary mining on the data to filter out the critical information, processing the filtered critical information through intelligent algorithms, and combining the actual demand information to analyze the optimal supply distribution method. e decision information is then transmitted to the nodes through the communication layer and fed back to the actual logistics transport process.
Based on the aforementioned framework and combined with the epidemic prevention requirements of COVID-19, this paper builds an emergency supplies distribution auxiliary system in COVID-19 based on the existing Guang-Dong Platform for Common GeoSptial Information Services (http://guangdong.tianditu.gov.cn/). e functional structure of the system is shown in Figure 2. It includes a public service system, epidemic prevention and control system, mobile service system, postepidemic decision auxiliary system, departmental coordination system, emergency supplies management system, shared exchange system, and interface services with other systems [38]. e system can be quickly built based on the services provided by the GuangDong Platform for Common GeoSptial Information Services. e collaboration model between the emergency supplies distribution system and the auxiliary system based on the cloud platform in the COVID-19 is shown in Figure 3.
e system design and key technologies of emergency supplies distribution on the cloud platform are as follows.

Unified Data Management and Sharing
Service. Based on the unified data management provided by the cloud platform and hierarchical sharing services for emergency demand, the hierarchical management of epidemic prevention and control can be quickly realized. It can complete hierarchical prevention and control management at the city, district, and town levels.

Place Name and Address Matching Service.
Based on the place name and address matching service provided by the cloud platform, the rapid mapping of various types of epidemic data is realized, and the epidemic prevention and control map is formed promptly.

Intelligent Algorithm Service.
rough intelligent algorithms combined with urban population data, the distribution of floating populations in high-risk areas can also be analyzed. is facilitates targeted epidemic prevention and control.
e intelligent algorithm service of the cloud platform is mainly reflected in the following aspects: (i) Build a distributed spatiotemporal big data storage engine, which uses NoSQL and SQL combination and is compatible with HBase, Hadoop, and PostgreSQL to realize the organization and management of large-scale heterogeneous spatiotemporal data. (ii) Establish a distributed spatiotemporal Big Data index, support multiple indexes, such as R-Tree and GeoHash, which used distributed GIS algorithm and combined with Spark cluster to provide largescale distributed memory computing. (iii) Integrate GPU/CPU large-scale parallel computing to provide high-performance Web-based GIS computing services.

Public Service
Platform. e public service platform can help the construction of an emergency logistics system. For example, Guangdong Province has met the demand of different departments and people for data by building the GuangDong Platform for Common GeoSptial Information Services, realized various demands from "zero-code" construction to complex secondary development.

Meet Multilevel Demands.
e construction of the emergency logistics system should consider the use of CDC, hospitals, medical institutions, and other government departments and consider the use of the public. e special distribution centers should handle the distribution of emergency supplies. e transport reserve system is different from the general supplies for the supply of emergency supplies in terms of financing, reserve, and transport [39]. To clarify the modelling boundaries, this research obtains emergency supplies supply information and classifies the demand information through the cloud platform, focusing on emergency supplies distribution. e emergency supplies distribution steps of the cloud platform can be briefly summarized as follows: publish supplies demand data at various demand points ⟶ collect the emergency supplies from suppliers and distribution centers in various places ⟶ supplies reserve and distribution plan ⟶ intelligent cloud decisionmaking for supplies sorting, vehicle management, and path selection ⟶ supplies distribution at each demand point. e detailed flowchart of the proposed emergency supplies distribution is presented in Figure 4. e cloud platform is mainly responsible for the information flow part, and the logistics part is handed over to the relevant emergency personnel.

Methods
e emergency supplies are demanded during the incident, and after a major epidemic, the emergency supplies reserved in the city become low. Hence, the reserves are not sufficient for the long-term needs of the city's emergency. Note that the demand of each demand point in the epidemic and their urgency might be different. erefore, it is essential to reasonably plan the supply distribution to fluctuation emergency supplies' demands. e existing supply chain of emergency supplies is generally a 3-level distribution network of "supplies, supplier-distribution centers, and demand points" as shown in Figure 5. However, such patterns require more data and excessively make unrealistic assumptions on time spent in the parts [40]. e traditional distribution model of emergency supplies has complicated processes and insufficient information communication between nodes. is is also prone to a lot of additional costs. e distribution model of emergency supplies based on the cloud platform (as shown in Figure 6) can optimize the "i * j" routes between the suppliers, i, and the demand points j to "i + j" routes by the cloud platform, which greatly simplifies the distribution process. Sufficient sharing of information resources enabled by the cloud platform enables the supplier to fully understand the  supplies demand of the demand point, which makes it unnecessary for the vehicles to transit through the distribution center as in the traditional model, hence can directly complete the supplies distribution from the supplier to the demand point. To optimize the distribution model, the time, and the cost of the overall emergency logistics network, it is necessary to reasonably plan the distribution route and the position of each node to minimize the sum of the costs and time of all routes. Furthermore, it is necessary to consider route optimization and establish a cloud platform emergency supplies distribution model to achieve optimal supplies distribution.
Concerning the actual scenario of emergency supplies distribution in COVID-19, the following assumptions are made in combination with the characteristics of the cloud platform: (1) In the process of emergency supplies distribution, a vehicle can only transport one kind of supplies at a time.
(2) e transaction cost does not incur in the distribution of emergency supplies based on the cloud platform.
(3) e cloud platform in this paper is led by the state. Hence, the node does not need to consider the construction cost of the cloud platform.

Parameter
Setting. e relevant parameters and decision variables of the emergency supplies distribution model are presented in Table 1.

System Model.
Based on the aforementioned model, the cost of the emergency supplies distribution model in the epidemic is MinT ′ � i∈V j∈V n∈N k∈K e objective function in equation (1) represents the minimum integrated cost of the traditional emergency supplies distribution, including the transaction cost in the distribution of emergency supplies, the loading and unloading cost, and the transportation cost. Equation (2) also represents the minimum integrated cost of emergency supplies distribution based on the cloud platform, including the loading and unloading costs and transportation costs. Equations (3) and (4) are the minimum time in the traditional and cloud platform models, respectively, including the loading and unloading and transportation time. We also have the following constraints: i∈N ∪ J n∈N k∈K i∈N n∈N k∈K j∈N n∈N k∈K i∈N k∈K a p ijk � 1, ∀j ∈ J, ∀p ∈ P, j∈N k∈K where equations (5) and (6) ensure that if the distribution center n is selected to serve the point pair p, there must be a vehicle to transport emergency supplies; otherwise, no distribution center is selected. Equations (7) and (8) indicate that the emergency supplies from supplier i to demand point j must be solely transported through the distribution center n. Equations (9) and (10) also ensure that only one path can be selected for transportation at a time in the traditional model. We further need to make sure the following: p∈P a p ijk d p ≤ q ijkn x ijkn , ∀i ∈ V, ∀j ∈ V, ∀k ∈ K, ∀n ∈ N, x ijkn ∈ 0, 1 { }, ∀i ∈ V, ∀j ∈ V, ∀n ∈ V, ∀k ∈ K.   Mathematical Problems in Engineering In the aforementioned equations, equation (11) ensures that the number of emergency supplies provided by all suppliers is the same as all demand points received it. Equation (12) enforces the transportation capacity constraint, which requires that the distribution center n selected for the transport path between the point pair p must be active. Equation (13) also enforces the transportation capacity of the distribution center n. Equations (14) to (16) also apply the transportation capacity constraints between the points, where equations (17) to (18) are the decision variables related to the emergency supplies distribution model.

Algorithm Design.
e distribution of emergency supplies in the epidemic based on cloud platforms extends the traditional logistics transport problem. Furthermore, the emergency supplies distribution model in this paper involves multiple distribution centers and multiple demand points. erefore, it is necessary to adopt an intelligent optimization algorithm to solve the problem. Here, we propose using the genetic algorithm. e steps of the genetic algorithm in this research are as follows: Step 1: Population Initialization. Number each demand point, randomly arrange and generate chromosomes, and reserve them in a matrix to form the initial population.
Step 2: Calculate Fitness. Calculate the transport distance of each chromosome in the initial population. en add the supply requirements of each demand point and the upper limit of the vehicle load into the fitness calculation to find the shortest average time and route. Set the number of iterations g � 1.
Step 3: Selecting the Chromosome. Select the chromosome with the lowest fitness in this generation as the father's chromosome, and leave the ascending chromosomes as the mother's chromosome.
Step 4: Cross-Variation. Using the monarch scheme, the chromosome with the highest fitness value is selected as the monarch chromosome. It is then placed in the odd-numbered position of the entire population and forms a pair with the even-numbered position of the latter one. e number of crossover points is then determined according to the crossover probability (P c � 0.8), and the population is randomly selected according to the variation probability P m (P m � 0.3) after the cross-operation [41]. e next generation of chromosomes is then generated. e algorithm calculates the fitness of the population individuals after cross-variation. e minimum fitness of the generation g and the corresponding individual value are recorded. en it is checked whether the number of iterations exceeds the maximum allowed iterations, G. If so, the cycle is stopped, otherwise g � g + 1, and it returns to Step 4 to re-execute the monarch plan [41][42][43][44]. e flowchart of the algorithm is shown in Figure 7.

Experimental and Data Analysis
To optimize the distribution of emergency supplies, we use MATLAB-generated data using the actual coordinate distribution on the map. We also modify some of the parameters of the sample city for sensitivity analysis and then analyze the stability of the supplies distribution path. In these models, a distribution center n, undertakes the transportation task from multiple suppliers i to demand points j. When the vehicle is transported in the traditional model, the supplies are loaded once at the supplier, then loaded and unloaded once at the distribution center, and unloaded once at the demand point. e vehicle only needs to load the supplies once at the supplier and unload the supplies at the demand point in the cloud platform model. For brevity, this paper does not consider the fixed opening cost of each point in the emergency logistics network. e points and data in this experiment are based on the Baidu map (https://map.baidu.com/) and the relevant literature [42][43][44][45], optimizing the results through MATLAB.

Emergency Logistics Optimization in the Seriously Affected City Based on the Cloud Platform.
e main stations and logistics parks in the seriously affected city are selected as the suppliers. e Red Cross Society and the relevant government departments in the city are selected as the distribution centers. e eight main hospitals in the city are selected as the demand points. e relevant data for each point in the emergency logistics model is presented in Table 2. Table 3 shows the distance between suppliers, distribution centers, and demand points in the seriously affected city.
is paper assumes that during the opening of each point, the emergency supplies between suppliers and demand points in the seriously affected city are as presented in Table 4.
After the optimization in MATLAB, the integrated cost of the emergency logistics model in the seriously affected city is obtained and shown in Figure 8. e emergency logistics plan is also presented in Table 5. e integrated cost of the emergency logistics in the traditional model is 21,030 yuans, and the integrated time is 17.54; the integrated cost of emergency logistics based on the cloud platform is 14,930 yuans, and the integrated time is 13.51. It means a reduction of 29.01% of the cost and 22.98% of the time using the proposed cloud platform. e distribution path of emergency supplies from suppliers and demand points are also shown in Table 5. For instance, for Demand Point 1, in the traditional emergency logistics model, the supplies it received are provided by Supplier 2 through the 3rd vehicle of Distribution Center 3, Supplier 3 through the 1st vehicle of Distribution Center 1, and also Supplier 4 through the 1st vehicle of distribution Center 3. In the emergency logistics based on the cloud platform, Demand Point 1 can directly receive emergency supplies provided by Suppliers 2, 3, and 4 without transferring through the distribution center. As it is seen, using the proposed cloud platform, emergency supplies can be transported directly from the supplier to the demand point, significantly reducing the transportation process.

Emergency Logistics Optimization in the General Affected City Based on the Cloud Platform.
e main stations and logistics parks in the general affected city are selected as the suppliers. e Red Cross Society and the relevant government departments in the city are selected as the distribution centers. e four main hospitals in the city are selected as the demand points. e relevant data for each point in the emergency logistics model is presented in Table 6. Table 7 shows the distance between suppliers, distribution centers, and demand points in the general affected city.
is paper assumes that during the opening of each point, the emergency supplies between suppliers and demand points in the general affected city are as presented in Table 8.
After the optimization in MATLAB, the integrated cost of the emergency logistics model in the general affected city as shown in Figure 9 and the emergency logistics plan in the general affected city as shown in Table 9. e integrated cost of the emergency logistics in the traditional model is 11,670 yuans, and the integrated time is 10.20; the integrated cost of emergency logistics based on the cloud platform is 9,070 yuans, and the integrated time is 7.49. It means a reduction of 28.67% of the cost and 26.59% of the time using the proposed cloud platform. e distribution path of emergency supplies from suppliers and demand points in the general affected city is shown in Table 9.

Emergency Logistics Optimization in the Minor Affected City Based on the Cloud Platform.
e main stations and logistics parks in the minor affected city are selected as the suppliers. e Red Cross Society and relevant government departments in the city are selected as the distribution centers. e two main hospitals in the city are selected as the demand points. e relevant data for each point in the emergency logistics model is presented in Table 10. Table 11 shows the distance between suppliers, distribution centers, and demand points in the minor affected city.
is paper assumes that during the opening of each point, the emergency supplies between suppliers and demand points in the minor affected city are as presented in Table 12.
After the optimization in MATLAB, the integrated cost of the emergency logistics model in the minor affected city as shown in Figure 10, and the emergency logistics plan in the minor affected city as shown in Table 13. e integrated cost of the emergency logistics in the traditional model is 4,840 yuans, and the integrated time is 3.15; the integrated cost of emergency logistics based on the cloud platform is 3,740 yuans, and the integrated time is 1.99. It means a reduction of 22.73% of the cost and 36.65% of the time using the proposed cloud platform.
e distribution path of emergency supplies from suppliers and demand points in the minor affected city is shown in Table 13. e aforementioned cases show that the cloud platform has played a critical role in reducing the cost and time of emergency supplies distribution. With the city's emergency levels, the cloud platform has a bigger effect on cost optimization.

Sensitivity
Analysis. Different levels of urban emergency logistics have different integrated cost and distribution paths due to different factors, such as supplies demand and transportation capacity constraints. With the level of emergency increased, the demand for emergency supplies and the cost of transportation increased. It is seen that the unit transportation cost c ijkn and the loading and unloading cost C l have significant impacts on the supplies distribution. To further verify the impact of these factors on the emergency logistics based on the cloud platform, this paper     changes the value of c ijkn and C l , keeping the other parameters unchanged. We then explore the impact of these parameters on the integrated cost to investigate the stability of emergency logistics. e final results are presented in Table 14.
e sensitivity analysis of different parameters in Table 6 suggests the following: (1) Given a limited amount of time, with the intensification of emergency levels (or increasing the number of demand points), the impact of the unit transportation cost of the emergency logistics is decreased. In contrast, the impact of the loading and unloading cost of emergency logistics is increased. (2) e cloud platform can play a good role in optimizing the integrated cost of emergency logistics; the effect increases with the increasing emergency levels. (3) Although the integrated cost of the emergency logistics fluctuates by the changes in parameters, the distribution path and the integrated time have not changed. is confirms that the distribution model is stable and can optimize the distribution path of the emergency supplies.        Table 12: Emergency supplies between suppliers and demand points in the minor affected city.

Conclusion and Future Works
e logistics industry plays a vital role in the distribution of emergency supplies. In this paper, we devised a cloud platform for emergency supplies distribution. By establishing an urban emergency supplies distribution path optimization model, our proposed platform optimizes the supplies distribution routes in the epidemic and reduces emergency logistics costs and time.
Although this research has optimized the distribution mode and costs of emergency supplies based on cloud platforms in the epidemic, the results of this research can be extended in the following directions: (1) Further investigation of multiobjective optimization to achieve the optimal cost and the shortest time for the emergency supplies distribution based on the cloud platform. (2) Considering the situation of reverse logistics in emergency logistics and optimizing the emergency supplies distribution model from a general perspective. (3) Considering cross-regional/countries distribution of emergency supplies based on a cloud platform. (4) At present, there are not many academic studies on the accuracy of cloud platforms supplies distribution [46][47][48]. In the future, new experimental results will be combined to prove the accuracy and effectiveness of the cloud platform.
