of Railways. Our Railways were first introduced to India in 1853 from Bombay to Thane. Indian Railways is the golden era to our nation. RUNNING ROOM is a railway project which aims “To allocate the beds for the loco Pilots (LP’s), Assistant Loco Pilots (ALP’s) and Guards in the running room of all divisions
Statistical analysis of weekday operating room anesthesia group staffing at nine independently managed surgical suites. Anesth Analg 2001;92:1493–8
"... At many surgical suites, surgeons and patients schedule elective cases on whatever future workday they choose, resulting in there being no limit on the number of cases performed each day. Staff are then scheduled in the manner that satisfies the marketing guarantee to the surgeons, satisfies labor c ..."

First- and second-shift staffing At many surgical suites, the surgeons and patients can schedule their elective cases on whatever future workday they choose, which results
Surgery planning and scheduling
- Wiley Encyclopedia of Operations Research and Management Science
, 2010
"... In 2007, total health-care spending in the United States reached US $2.3 trillion, and continues to rise at the fastest rate in US history. The design and implementation of better planning and scheduling systems is an important area to study in order to reduce high costs and improve access to servi ..."

hospitals. These important performance measures are influenced in part by the surgery scheduling systems and policies that are used in practice. Surgery scheduling systems impact a variety of expensive resources including operating rooms (ORs), the postanesthesia care unit (PACU), intensive care unit (ICU
2011, Characterization of Tactical Departure Scheduling
- in the National Airspace System, 11th AIAA Aviation Technology, Integration, and Operations (ATIO) Conference
"... This paper discusses and analyzes current day utilization and performance of the tactical departure scheduling process in the National Airspace System (NAS) to understand the benefits in improving this process. The analysis used operational air traffic data from over 1,082,000 flights during the mon ..."

the airborne slot that aircraft are being scheduled into from the airport surface. Operational data analysis described in this paper indicates significant room for improvement exists in the current system primarily in the area of reduced departure time prediction uncertainty. Results indicate that a
Determining the Number of Beds in the Postanesthesia Care Unit: A Computer Simulation Flow Approach
"... Designing a new operating room (OR) suite is a difficult process owing to the number of caregivers involved and because decision-making managers try to minimize the direct and indirect costs of operating the OR suite. In this study, we devised a computer simulation flow model to calculate, first, th ..."

Simulation and Planning of an Intermodal Container Terminal
"... A decision support system for the management of an intermodal container terminal is presented. Among the problems to be solved, there are the spatial allocation of containers on the terminal yard, the allocation of resources and the scheduling of operations in order to maximise a performance functio ..."

A Predictive Model for Satisfying Conflicting Objectives in Scheduling Problems.
, 1991
"... It is argued that to achieve the required balance between objectives, a scheduling system must have the ability to relate the consequence of a decision to the satisfaction of overall objectives. The dissertation introduces the concept of a preference capacity plan (PCP) in an attempt to give automa ..."

and algorithms derived from the fields of operations research and management science. The second section describes a more recent development in the area of manufacturing scheduling. Several systems have been built that use advances in knowledge representation and search methodologies stemming from the AI field
Large Neighborhood Search for Energy Aware Meeting Scheduling in Smart Buildings
"... Abstract. One of the main inefficiencies in building management sys-tems is the widespread use of schedule-based control when operating heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. HVAC sys-tems typically operate on a pre-designed schedule that heats or cools rooms in the building to a ..."

Reducing surgical ward congestion at the vancouver island health authority through improved surgical scheduling
, 2008
"... As a consequence of high surgical bed occupancy levels in Vancouver Island Health Authority (VIHA) hospitals, staff stress levels, surgical cancellations and wait times for surgeries were becoming problematic. In collaboration with VIHA management and through site visits, interviews, and data analys ..."
