Centralized vs. Decentralized Ambulance Diversion: A Network Perspective
In recent years, growth in the demand for emergency medical services along with decline in the number of hospitals with emergency departments (EDs) has led to overcrowding. In periods of overcrowding, an ED can request the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) agency to divert incoming ambulances to neighboring hospitals, a phenomenon known as “ambulance diversion”. The EMS agency will accept this r...
متن کاملDesigning Dispatching Rules to Minimize Total Tardiness
We approximate optimal solutions to the Flexible Job-Shop Problem by using dispatching rules discovered through Genetic Programming. While Simple Priority Rules have been widely applied in practice, their efficacy remains poor due to lack of a global view. Composite Dispatching Rules have been shown to be more effective as they are constructed through human experience. In this work, we employ s...
متن کاملPlanning and Scheduling to Minimize Tardiness
We combine mixed integer linear programming (MILP) and constraint programming (CP) to minimize tardiness in planning and scheduling. Tasks are allocated to facilities using MILP and scheduled using CP, and the two are linked via logic-based Benders decomposition. We consider two objectives: minimizing the number of late tasks, and minimizing total tardiness. Our main theoretical contribution is...
متن کاملA Framework to Minimize Total Energy Consumption and Total Tardiness on a Single Machine
A great amount of energy is wasted in industry by machines that remain idle due to underutilization. A way to avoid wasting energy and thus reducing the carbon print of an industrial plant is to consider minimization of energy consumption objective while making scheduling decisions. In order to minimize energy consumption, the decision maker has to decide the timing and length of turn off /turn...
متن کاملParticle Swarm Optimization for Scheduling to Minimize Tardiness Penalty and Power Cost
Traditional research on machine scheduling focuses on job allocation and sequencing to optimize certain objective functions that are defined in job completion times. With regard to environmental concerns, energy consumption becomes another critical concern in high-performance systems. In this paper, we address the scheduling problem in a multiple machine system where the computing speeds of the...
