Capacitated lot-sizing and scheduling with sequence-dependent, period-overlapping and non-triangular setups (2011)
Journal Article
Menezes, A. A., Clark, A., & Almada-Lobo, B. (2011). Capacitated lot-sizing and scheduling with sequence-dependent, period-overlapping and non-triangular setups. Journal of Scheduling, 14(2), 209-219. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10951-010-0197-6

In production planning, sequence dependent setup times and costs are often incurred for switchovers from one product to another. When setup times and costs do not respect the triangular inequality, a situation may occur where the optimal solution inc...

Nurse rescheduling with shift preferences and minimal disruption (2011)
Journal Article
Clark, A., & Walker, H. (2011). Nurse rescheduling with shift preferences and minimal disruption

Hospital wards must be staffed 24 hours a day by a limited number of nurses. With a well documented shortage of nurses in many countries, effective scheduling of nurse shifts is crucial. Recent research on nurse scheduling has focused on creating... Read More about Nurse rescheduling with shift preferences and minimal disruption.
