Comparison of Algorithms for Nurse Rostering Problems
Despite decades of research into automated methods for nurse rostering and some academic successes, one may notice that there is no consistency in the knowledge that has been built up over the years and that many healthcare institutions still resort to manual practices. One of the possible reasons for this gap between the nurse rostering theory and practice is that often the academic community ...
متن کاملNurse Rostering with Genetic Algorithms
In recent years genetic algorithms have emerged as a useful tool for the heuristic solution of complex discrete optimisation problems. In particular there has been considerable interest in their use in tackling problems arising in the areas of scheduling and timetabling. However, the classical genetic algorithm paradigm is not well equipped to handle constraints and successful implementations u...
متن کاملMemetic Algorithms for Nurse Rostering
Nurse rostering problems represent a subclass of scheduling problems that are hard to solve. The goal is finding high quality shift and resource assignments, satisfying the needs and requirements of employees as well as the employers in healthcare institutions. In this paper, a real case of a nurse rostering problem is introduced. Memetic Algorithms utilizing different type of promising genetic...
متن کاملCategorisation of nurse rostering problems
Personnel rostering has received ample attention in recent years. Due to its social and economic relevance and due to its intrinsic complexity, it has become a major subject for scheduling and timetabling researchers. Among the personnel rostering problems, nurse rostering turned out to be particularly complex and difficult. In this paper, we propose a notation for nurse rostering problems alon...
متن کاملVariable Neighbourhood Search for Nurse Rostering Problems
Nurse rostering problems consist of assigning varying tasks, represented as shift types, to hospital personnel with different skills and work regulations. We want to satisfy as many constraints and personal preferences as possible while constructing a schedule which meets the personnel requirements of the hospital over a predefined planning period. Real world situations are often so constrained...
