Research Abstract |
A study of staff scheduling support systems designed to maintain the quality of nursing and care services yielded three main results. (1) We developed, in Microsoft Excel, a prototype "home help staff scheduling support system" and a web-based system based on the prototype. (2) We could obtain exact solutions for instances of nurse scheduling problems which were previously unsolved, by dealing with these instances as mixed integer problems or satisfiability problems. (3) We suggest that the information obtained by representing feasible solutions as a network is efficient for schedulers to ascertain staff scheduling problems.
