چکیده

In this article we present an approach designed to solve a real world problem: the Anesthesiology Nurse Scheduling Problem (ANSP) at a public French hospital. The anesthesiology nurses are one of the most shared resources in the hospital and we attempt to find a fair/balanced schedule for them, taking into account a set of constraints and the nurses’ stated preferences, concerning the different shifts. We propose a particle swarm optimization algorithm to solve the ANSP. Finally, we compare our technique with previous results obtained using integer programming.

Cyber Swarm Algorithms for Multi-objective Nurse Rostering Problem

It is time-consuming to determine the nurse rostering using traditional human-involved manner in order to account for administrative operations, business benefits, governmental regulations, and nurse requests. Moreover, the objectives cannot be measured quantitatively even when the nurse rostering is generated after a lengthy manual process. This paper presents a multiobjective optimization met...

Particle swarm optimization for minimizing total earliness/tardiness costs of two-stage assembly flowshop scheduling problem in a batched delivery system

This paper considers a two-stage assembly flow shop scheduling problem. When all parts of each product are completed in the first stage, they are assembled into a final product on an assembly machine in the second stage. In order to reduce the delivery cost, completed products can be held until completion of some other products to be delivered in a same batch. The proposed problem addresses sch...
