Journal Article
Castillo-Salazar, J. A., Landa-Silva, D., & Qu, R. (2016). Workforce scheduling and routing problems: literature survey and computational study. Annals of Operations Research, 239(1), 39-67. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10479-014-1687-2

In the context of workforce scheduling, there are many scenarios in which personnel must carry out tasks at different locations hence requiring some form of transportation. Examples of these type of scenarios include nurses visiting patients at home,... Read More about Workforce scheduling and routing problems: literature survey and computational study.

A heuristic algorithm based on multiassignment procedures for nurse scheduling (2014)
Journal Article
Constantino, A. A., Landa-Silva, D., de Melo, E. L., de Mendonza, C. F. X., Rizzato, D. B., & Romao, W. (2014). A heuristic algorithm based on multiassignment procedures for nurse scheduling. Annals of Operations Research, 218(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10479-013-1357-9

This paper tackles a Nurse Scheduling Problem which consists of generating work schedules for a set of nurses while considering their shift preferences and other requirements. The objective is to maximize the satisfaction of nurses? preferences and m... Read More about A heuristic algorithm based on multiassignment procedures for nurse scheduling.
