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.

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.
