Abstract:
Background. Variability in outpatient specialty clinic schedules contributes to numerous adverse effects including chaotic clinic settings, provider burnout, increased patient waiting times, and inefficient use of resources. This research measures the benefit of balancing provider schedules in an outpatient specialty clinic. Design. We developed a constrained optimization model to minimize the variability in provider schedules in an outpatient specialty clinic. Schedule variability was defined as the variance in the number of providers scheduled for clinic during each hour the clinic is open.

Abstract:
Energy consumption schedulers have been widely adopted for energy management in smart microgrids. Energy management aims to alleviate energy expenses and peak-to-average ratio (PAR) without compromising user comfort. This work proposes an energy consumption scheduler using heuristic optimization algorithms: Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO), Wind Driven Optimization (WDO), Genetic Algorithm (GA), Differential Evolution (DE), and Enhanced DE (EDE). The energy consumption scheduler based on these algorithms under a price-based demand response program creates a schedule of home appliances

Abstract:
The distributed schedule optimization of energy storage constitutes a challenge. Such algorithms often expect an input set containing all feasible schedules and, therefore, require searching the schedule space efficiently. However, it is hardly possible to accomplish this with energy storage due to its high flexibility. In this paper, the problem is introduced in detail and addressed by a metaheuristic algorithm, which generates a preselection of schedules. Two contributions are presented to achieve this goal: First, an extension for a distributed schedule optimization allowing a simultaneous

Abstract:
Life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) is a way to evaluate the long-term cost effectiveness of different pavement designs or treatment actions. Owing to the existence of uncertainties, many probabilistic LCCA models have been proposed. They mainly use a prescribed treatment schedule or determine schedules by mechanistic-empirical analysis, potentially leading to the overestimation of life-cycle cost (LCC). In this paper, a new probabilistic simulation-optimization LCCA model is proposed. This new model determines treatment schedules by minimizing total LCC, including agency and user cost, which is d

Construction duration and schedule robustness are of great importance to ensure efficient construction. However, the current literature has neglected the importance of schedule robustness. Relatively little attention has been paid to schedule robustness via deviation of an activity’s starting time, which does not consider schedule robustness via structural deviation caused by the logical relationships among activities. This leads to a possibility of deviation between the planned schedule and the actual situation. Thus, an optimization model of construction duration and schedule robustness is p

Abstract:
Purpose – Developing an optimized project schedule that considers all decision criteria represents a challenge for project managers. The purpose of this paper is to provide a multi-objectives overall optimization model for project scheduling considering time, cost, resources, and cash flow. This development aims to overcome the limitations of optimizing each objective at once resulting of non-overall optimized schedule. Design/methodology/approach – In this paper, a multi-objectives overall optimization model for project scheduling is developed using particle swarm optimization with a new evol

Abstract:
Infrastructure systems in the United States are aging and considerable investment is needed to renew and replace a significant proportion of the existing systems. Piping systems, which are used in many infrastructure systems such as the distribution networks for utilities – water, sewage, gas, oil, etc., are very important in this regard. Real time scheduling is an important and necessary task in the planning and execution of construction projects. This is of particular importance in the installation of pipe systems, for which it is time consuming to plan and coordinate between team members th

Abstract:
This study concerns the use of the critical chain method to schedule the construction of renewable energy facilities. The critical chain method is recognized as a useful project management tool, transforming a stochastic problem of uncertainty in activity durations into a deterministic one. However, this method has some shortcomings. There are no clear principles of grouping non-critical activities into feeding chains. Another ambiguity is sizing the feeding buffers with regard to the topology of the network model and the resulting dependencies between activities, located in different chains.

Abstract:
Due to the large spatial variation of groundwater depth, it is very difficult to determine suitable irrigation schedules for crops in shallow groundwater area. A zoning optimization method of irrigation schedule is proposed here, which can solve the problem of the connection between suitable irrigation schedules and different groundwater depths in shallow groundwater areas. The main results include: (1) Taking the annual mean groundwater depth 2.5 m as the dividing line, the shallow groundwater areas were categorized into two irrigation schedule zones.

This study aims to identify the risk factors causing the delay in the completion schedule and to determine an optimization strategy for more accurate completion schedule prediction. A validated questionnaire has been used to calculate a risk rating using the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) method, and a Monte Carlo simulation on @RISK 8.2 software was employed to obtain a more accurate prediction of project completion schedules. The study revealed that the dominant risk factors causing project delays are coordination with stakeholders and changes in the scope of work/design review. In addit

Abstract:
Fast-tracking is an important process to speed the delivery of construction projects. To support optimum fast-tracking decisions, this paper introduces a generic schedule optimization framework that integrates four schedule acceleration dimensions: linear activity crashing; discrete activity modes of execution; alternative network paths; and flexible activity overlapping. Because excessive schedule compression can lead to space congestion and overstressed workers, the optimization formulation uses specific variables and constraints to prevent simultaneous use of overlapping and crashing at the

Abstract:
The ASO model provides a proposal for a new flight schedule, in situations when a carrier’s flight scheduled is disrupted, and which would minimize the negative effects of the disruption. The objective function of the model is a mathematical formulation of the company’s goals and preferences, where all assumptions and operational constraints must be satisfied. The disruption costs are given in weighted coefficients which present the penalties that can be changed by the dispatcher. One of the goals was to test to what degree the generated solutions are sensitive to changes in penalty values.

Abstract:
The problem of optimal regulation of airline fleet schedules by reassigning aircraft to flights is considered. The optimal regulation of schedules is to create or change them in such a way that minimizes system losses due to current violations. As an estimate of losses, the total deviation of the adjusted schedule from the spetified departure schedules of aircraft is used. It is shown that the described technological system belongs to the category of parallel-sequential systems. Accordingly, the considered system control problem is NP-hard and does not have effective algorithms for exact solut
