A detailed workforce planning model including non-linear dependence of capacity on the size of the staff and cash management

Corominas, Albert; Lusa, Amaia; Olivella, Jordi - In: European Journal of Operational Research 216 (2012) 2, pp. 445-458

This paper introduces an original planning model which integrates production, human resources and cash management decisions, taking into account the consequences that decisions in one area may have on other areas and allowing all these areas to be coordinated. The most relevant characteristics...

The Effect of Budgetary Restrictions on Breast Cancer Diagnostic Decisions

Ayvaci, Mehmet U. S.; Alagoz, Oguzhan; Burnside, … - In: Manufacturing & Service Operations Management 14 (2012) 4, pp. 600-617

We develop a finite-horizon discrete-time constrained Markov decision process (MDP) to model diagnostic decisions after mammography where we maximize the total expected quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) of a patient under resource constraints. We use clinical data to estimate the parameters of...

Resolution of the two-part cyclic hoist scheduling problem with bounded processing times in complex lines' configuration

Amraoui, Adnen El; Manier, Marie-Ange; Moudni, Abdellah El - In: European Journal of Industrial Engineering 6 (2012) 4, pp. 454-473

The performance of an enterprise largely depends on the schedule of its resources. A good schedule may increase the output rate and reduce the production costs. Therefore, in this paper, we consider the cyclic schedule of hoist activities in automated electroplating lines which is commonly known...
