In this paper we demonstrate that by use of modern Systems and Optimal Control theory, it is possible to formulate optimum immigration and job creation strategies while maintaining population level close to certain pre-specified targets. With this objective in mind, we consider a simplified dynamic model based on a previous model developed in (Ahmed and Rahim, 2001:325-358) to describe the population distribution in Canada. Numerical results demonstrate that the model population is in close agreement with the actual population. This model was then used to formulate a control problem with immigration and job creation rates being the decision (control) variables. Using optimal control theory, optimum immigration and job creation policies were determined. Results are illustrated by numerical simulation and they are found to be very encouraging.

AbstractBuilding on an SEIR-type model of COVID-19 where the infecteds are further divided into symptomatic and asymptomatic, a system incorporating the various possible interventions is formulated. Interventions, also referred to as controls, include transmission reduction (e.g., lockdown, social distancing, barrier gestures); testing/isolation on the exposed, symptomatic and asymptomatic compartments; and medical controls such as enhancing patients’ medical care and increasing bed capacity. By considering the government’s capacity, the best strategies for implementing the controls were obtained using optimal control theory. Results show that, if all the controls are to be used, the more able the government is, the more it should implement transmission reduction, testing, and enhancing patients’ medical care without increasing hospital beds. However, if the government finds it very difficult to implement the controls for economic reasons, the best approach is to increase the hospital beds. Moreover, among the testing/isolation controls, testing/isolation in the exposed compartment is the least needed when there is significant transmission reduction control. Surprisingly, when there is no transmission reduction control, testing/isolation in the exposed should be optimal. Testing/isolation in the exposed could seemingly replace the transmission reduction control to yield a comparable result to that when the transmission reduction control is being implemented.
