- Abstract
- Abstract In this research we schedule the admission of patients trying to smooth the utilization of diagnosis resources such as CT-scans and of surgical resources such as operating rooms. We also want to allocate a bed to each patient if possible in an adequate care unit taking into account the bed capacity of each care unit. We are faced with a bi-objective problem. The first objective minimizes the peak of resource demands and the second one minimizes the penalty cost due to inappropriate patient assignment to care units. We use a lexicographic method to solve this multi-objective model. The latter has been experimented and the results are discussed.
