Healthcare facilities require flexible layouts that can adapt quickly in the face of various disruptions. COVID-19 confirmed this need for both healthcare and manufacturing systems. Starting with transfer decision support systems from manufacturing, paper generalizes layout re-design activities complex by presenting a simulation framework. Through real case study concerning proliferation nosoco...

This paper discusses the development of a new GA for layout design. The GA was already designed and reported. However the implementation used in the earlier work was rudimentary and cumbersome, having no suitable Graphical User Interface, GUI. This paper discusses the intricacies of the algorithm and the GA operators used in previous work. It also reports on implementation of a new GA operator ...

This paper presents an overview of a design environment for digital filters. We discuss ongoing work as well as previously developed parts of the design flow. The purpose with this design environment is to improve the design efficiency and thereby be able to increase the knowledge in the area of design and implementation of energy efficient digital filters. The design environment includes all d...
