Physician-Customized Strategies for Reducing Outpatient Waiting Time in South Korea Using Queueing Theory and Probabilistic Metamodels. [PDF]

Int J Environ Res Public Health, 2022
The time a patient spends waiting to be seen by a healthcare professional is an important determinant of patient satisfaction in outpatient care. Hence, it is crucial to identify parameters that affect the waiting time and optimize it accordingly. First,

Queueing: a perennial theory

Queueing systems, 2022
Given that there are somany diverse research trends in queueing theory, it is reasonable to say that there is no unified theory of queueing, and there probably never will be.

An effective and efficient matheuristic for the electric vehicle routing problem with capacitated recharging stations

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we address the problem of routing a fleet of electric vehicles (EVs) to serve a set of customers, geographically distributed, within their time windows. We assume that EVs may also be recharged en route, and the amount of energy recharged at a recharging station (RS) is a decision variable itself, that is, partial recharges are ...

Vessel arrival planning with full information

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Planning efficiency and timely arrival of vessels is crucial to smooth operations of maritime transport networks, ensuring optimal utilization of resources and minimizing operational costs. Coordination between vessel operators and terminals has the potential to reduce costs, fuel consumption, and waiting time.

Robust Queueing Theory

Operational Research, 2015
We propose an alternative approach for studying queues based on robust optimization. We model the uncertainty in the arrivals and services via polyhedral uncertainty sets, which are inspired from the limit laws of probability.
