Dear scheduling researcher, We are delighted to announce the talk given by Mike Carter <https://che.utoronto.ca/professor-michael-w-carter/> (University of Toronto). The title is " Challenges in Healthcare Scheduling Applications". The seminar will take place on Zoom on Wednesday, June 23 at 13:00 UTC. Join Zoom Meeting https://cesnet.zoom.us/j/93477049829?pwd=aE1lVjFyS1ZpQkdxRno2cVptSVdqUT09 <https://cesnet.zoom.us/j/93477049829?pwd=aE1lVjFyS1ZpQkdxRno2cVptSVdqUT09> Meeting ID: 934 7704 9829 Passcode: 866135 You can follow the seminar online or offline on our Youtube channel as well: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUoCNnaAfw5NAntItILFn4A The abstract follows. In the immortal words of Monty Python, “… and now for something completely different!” Over the past three decades, I have spent much of my time working on practical healthcare applications. Typically, the projects are done with healthcare collaborators. Virtually all of the scheduling problems are highly stochastic, and scheduling approaches focus on managing variability. In this talk, I will describe several healthcare applications including: diagnostic imaging, cancer treatment (chemotherapy and radiation), nurse/physician scheduling, surgical scheduling, 911 call centres, home care routing, medical resident scheduling and primary care appointments (e.g. advanced access). In each case, I will describe the underlying uncertainties and briefly review recent approaches. The next talk in our series will be given by Andrea Schaerf (University of Udine) | July 7 | Educational Timetabling: Problems, Benchmarks, Algorithms, and Practical Issues.

Dear scheduling researcher, We are delighted to announce the talk given by Jinjiang Yuan (Zhengzhou Uni). The title is "Updated complexity results in single-machine primary-secondary scheduling for minimizing two regular criteria". The seminar will take place on Zoom on Wednesday, June 9 at 13:00 UTC. Join Zoom Meeting https://cesnet.zoom.us/j/96998490212?pwd=Zm5QTXdTcnYyeVh5NytCb3NvNUpmUT09 <https://cesnet.zoom.us/j/96998490212?pwd=Zm5QTXdTcnYyeVh5NytCb3NvNUpmUT09> Meeting ID: 969 9849 0212 Passcode: 556764 You can follow the seminar online or offline on our Youtube channel as well: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUoCNnaAfw5NAntItILFn4A The abstract follows. In the primary-secondary scheduling problem, we have a primary scheduling criterion and a secondary scheduling criterion. The goal of the problem is to find a schedule which minimizes the second criterion, subject to the restriction that the primary criterion is minimized. Lee and Vairaktarakis [LV1993] presented a comprehensive review for the computational complexity of the single-machine primary-secondary scheduling problems, where all the jobs are released at time zero. When both of the two criteria are regular, more than twenty problems were posed as open in [LV1993]. This talk will report the research progress of these open problems. The next seminar in our series will be given by Mike Carter <https://che.utoronto.ca/professor-michael-w-carter/> (Uni of Toronto) "Challenges in Healthcare Scheduling Applications" and it will be held on June 23 at 13:00 UTC.
