Journal ArticleDOI
The State of the Art of Nurse Rostering
TL;DR: This review discusses nurse rostering within the global personnel scheduling problem in healthcare and critically evaluates solution approaches which span the interdisciplinary spectrum from operations research techniques to artificial intelligence methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Memetic Approach to the Nurse Rostering Problem
TL;DR: A range of new memetic approaches for the rostering problem are introduced, which use a steepest descent improvement heuristic within a genetic algorithm framework and a hybrid which is greater than the sum of its component algorithms is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
A guide to web tools to prioritize candidate genes
Léon-Charles Tranchevent,Francisco Bonachela Capdevila,Daniela Nitsch,Bart De Moor,Patrick De Causmaecker,Yves Moreau +5 more
TL;DR: This study reviews 19 computational solutions for human gene prioritization that are freely accessible as web tools and illustrates their differences, and describes several research directions that could increase the quality and applicability of the tools.
Book ChapterDOI
A Hybrid Tabu Search Algorithm for the Nurse Rostering Problem
TL;DR: The algorithms presented in this paper are a commercial nurse rostering product developed for the Belgian hospital market, entitled Plane, which combines constraint programming and linear programming techniques to deal with the over constrained schedules.
BookDOI
Practice and Theory of Automated Timetabling IV
TL;DR: The basic class–teacher timetabling problem is examined with the additional constraints due to the (un-)availability of source teachers and/or classes at some periods and some solvable cases are presented which can be derived from the image reconstruction formulation.
