摘要
How to schedule a limited number of nurses in hospital wards staffed 24 h a day is important issue for the satisfactory patient care and potentially improve nurse retention. Nurse Scheduling Problem (NSP) is a combinatorial optimization problem, in which a set of nurses must be assigned into a limited set of working slots, subject to a given set of hard and soft constraints. Various sophisticated algorithms have been developed for solving a NSP. It is natural to consider the scheduled nurse's unexpected absences, e.g., illness, accident and injury. Nurse Rerostering Problem (NRP) is a dynamic NSP where the aim is to reschedule the current roster so that the number of changes of assignments between current and modified schedules is minimized. In this paper, the focus is laid on NRP with multiple criteria and the "egalitarianism" among nurses in a modified schedule. A formal framework of Multi-Objective Nurse Rerostering Problem (MO-NRP) is defined where the aim is to find trade-off solutions among "optimality" and "stability". Also, a novel solution criterion called an egalitarian solution for a MO-NRP is introduced.
