Local Search for the Patient Admission Scheduling Problem under Uncertainty
We propose an extension of the Patient Admission Scheduling (PAS) problem that includes, among others, uncertainty in arrival times and stay lengths. We propose the use of a Simulated Annealing approach for both the longand short-term versions of the new problem, along the lines of the one employed successfully for the original PAS problem in [2]. 1 The Patient Admission Scheduling Problem The ...
متن کاملAn Improved Harmony Search Algorithm for Emergency Inspection Scheduling
The ability of nature inspired search algorithms to efficiently handle combinatorial problems and their successful implementation in many fields of engineering and applied sciences has led to the development of new, improved algorithms. In this paper, an improved harmony search algorithm (IHS) is presented, while a holistic approach in solving the problem of post-disaster infrastructure managem...
متن کاملHarmony Search Algorithm for Load Shedding Schedule Problem
In Libya, from time to time, the National Electricity Grid is directed by the National Electricity Company to conduct load shedding to alleviate pressure on supply at times of peak demand. This involves hours’ of power outages in the area covered by this study, namely, the Southern Electrical Grid of Libya (SEGL). The proposed approach focuses on a set of region categories to mitigate the effec...
متن کاملAn Elite Decision Making Harmony Search Algorithm for Optimization Problem
This paper describes a new variant of harmony search algorithmwhich is inspired by awell-known item “elite decision making.” In the new algorithm, the good information captured in the current global best and the second best solutions can be well utilized to generate new solutions, following some probability rule. The generated new solution vector replaces the worst solution in the solution set,...
متن کاملHarmony search algorithm for the container storage problem
Recently a new metaheuristic called harmony search was developed. It mimics the behaviors of musicians improvising to find the better state harmony. In this paper, this algorithm is described and applied to solve the container storage problem in the harbor. The objective of this problem is to determine a valid containers arrangement, which meets customers’ delivery deadlines, reduces the number...
