1. A computer-implemented, stochastic-integer-programming-based constrained optimization method to develop a strategic budget for allocation of disaster management resources to disaster events belonging to scenarios associated with occurrence probabilities comprising the steps of: providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire scenarios with unique IDs for each fire planning unit, and their occurrence probabilities; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire-groups with unique IDs including simultaneous fires in each scenario for the fire planning unit; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire events with unique IDs in each fire-group by one or more of fire management unit location, Fire Intensity Level, and sensitivity time period; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire events by one or more of their respective weights (relative utility in the utility function), burned area cumulative perimeter growth by time period, and burned area cumulative acres growth by time period; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire events with valid list of fire-management resources; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire-management resources by one or more of kind, category and type; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire-management resources by station location; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire-management resources by their resource dependencies; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fire-management resources with cumulative line production quantity by time period for each fire; providing as input, in a machine-readable data format, a list of stations with station capacities and expansion penalties; employing data processing in a computer to analyze strategic utility/benefit (weighted acres managed) under different planning scenarios involving one or more of user-selection of stations, their capacities, and resources there-in; and employing data processing in a computer to generate, in a machine-readable data format, a utility/benefit optimization model of overall strategic utility/benefit under one or more different planning scenarios; employing data processing in a computer to solve a stochastic integer program of a utility/benefit optimization model by solving its deterministic equivalent using a two-phase optimization approach; producing as output, in a machine-readable data format, a list of fires with their ID, corresponding contained/escaped status, containment time period, deployed resources, and expected utility; producing as output, in a machine-readable data format, a list of deployed resources by one or more of kind, category, type and station location; producing as output, in a machine-readable data format, a distribution of the optimal utility function values, weighted acres managed (WAM), by each scenario.
