چکیده
[3] Dr.S.Khumaraguru Associate professor Department of Mathematics Chikkanna government Arts College Tirupur Abstract The aim of this paper is to operationalize the concept of nursing schedule quality in such a way that it can cope with the nature of nursing schedule quality. This operationalization describes, the concept of nursing schedule quality needs to be analyzed in such a way that all views on this quality are taken into account. This type of an analysis results in a conceptual model of nursing schedule quality. Then it concerns the operationalization of this conceptual model into a formal model of nursing schedule quality. This type of formal model enables the measurement of this quality. Finally the application of this formal model in order to support the task of nurse scheduling.

Nurse rostering is a complex scheduling problem that affects hospital personnel on a daily basis all over the world. The need for quality software solutions is acute for a number of reasons. In particular, it is very important to efficiently utilise time and effort, to evenly balance the workload among people and to attempt to satisfy personnel preferences. A high quality roster can lead to a m...
متن کاملAn Efficient Method for Nurse Scheduling Problem using Simulated Annealing
We applied simulated annealing algorithm to nurse scheduling problem. For time complexity problem of simulated annealing, we suggested an efficient transition rule using cost matrix for simulated annealing. The experimental results showed that the suggested method generated a nurse scheduling faster in time and better in quality compared to traditional simulated annealing.
متن کاملAn Efficient Method for Nurse Scheduling Problem using the Genetic Algorithm
We applied a genetic algorithm to the nurse scheduling problem. To improve performance of the genetic algorithm, we suggested an efficient operator using a cost bit matrix. The experimental results showed that the suggested method generated a nurse scheduling faster in time and better in quality compared to a traditional genetic algorithm.
