Weighted-Sum Approach to Health Care Optimization

This chapter presents two multicriteria optimization models with bi and triple objectives solved with weighted-sum approach. Solved problems are allocation of personnel in a health care institution. To deal with these problems, mixed integer programming formulation has been applied. Results have shown the impact of problem parameter change for importance of the different objectives. Presented problems have been solved using AMPL programming language with solver CPLEX v9.1, with the use of branch and bound method.
