چکیده

Personnel scheduling problems need to cope with personnel preferences, coverage constraints, legal restrictions, and many other constraints. We present a three-stage methodology that can be used to select personnel rosters. In the first stage we generate multiple personnel rosters with a mathematical programming model. In the second stage, the performance of the rosters regarding a number of service criteria is evaluated through discrete event simulation. In the third stage, a ranking is made using Data Envelopment Analysis. The methodology is tested on a personnel scheduling problem for aircraft line maintenance.

An integrated simulation-DEA approach to multi-criteria ranking of scenarios for execution of operations in a construction project

The purpose of this study is to examine different scenarios for implementing operations in the pre-construction phase of a project, based on several competing criteria with different importance levels in order to achieve a more efficient execution plan. This paper presents a new framework that integrates discrete event simulation (DES) and data envelopment analysis (DEA) to rank different scena...

Appointment process of open-heart surgery in Shahid Rajaei Heart Hospital using a discrete event simulation approach

Background: The waiting list is a list of selected patients in the surgical queue. If demand exceeds capacity, the waiting list grows rapidly, which may lead to unacceptable waiting for patients, especially those in need of acute medical care. Patients waiting for heart surgery are placed on the waiting list for surgery, and sometimes the waiting time is longer than patients expect. Reducing th...

A Simulation Model for Aircraft Maintenance in an Uncertain Operational Environment

We present a discrete-event simulation model for maintenance operations of a fleet of fighter aircraft in crisis situations, where the fleet operations are affected by a threat of an enemy's actions. The model describes the flight process and basic modes of periodic maintenance and failure repairs. Features that are specific to crisis situations include battle damages of the aircraft, decentral...
