Multi-Agent System for solving Dynamic Operating Theater Facility Layout Problem
The Operating Theater (OT) is known to be a fluctuating production system. The unpredictability of populations’ needs has an impact on the required human and material resources and makes the Operating Theater a dynamic environment. Thus, the use of dynamic models is getting more realistic to solve OT Layout Problem (OTLP). While solving Dynamic OTLP, Real-life Operating Theater (OT) sizes are l...
متن کاملA Quaternion Firefly Algorithm to Solve a Multi-row Facility Layout Problem (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper, a quaternion firefly algorithm is utilized to solve a multi-row facility layout design problem with the objective of minimizing the total cost of transportation. A quaternion firefly algorithm takes the motion of the firefly as a quaternion one. Consequently, the solution space is explored more accurately and the answers are of higher quality. That is, the answers are considerabl...
متن کاملApplication of Fuzzy Decision-Making to Facility Layout Planning
This research proposes a vigorous methodology based on the fuzzy set theory to improve the facility layout process. Using natural language, the fuzzy set theory is an appropriate tool for controlling complex systems such as facility planning. The closeness rating between departments in a plant depends on qualitative and quantitative factors. Some of these factors may have a greater effect on th...

متن کاملA Multi-objective Mixed-Integer Programming Model for a Multi-Section Operating Theatre Facility Layout
The operating theater layout problem (OTLP) in a hospital aims to determine for a set of facilities their positions and orientations on the floor-layout of departments in a hospital subject to a set of constraints on distances, available areas, and non-overlapping facilities according to international medical standards and specifications. The OTLP has two main objectives: a quantitative objecti...
