A two-level optimization model for elective surgery scheduling with downstream capacity constraints |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
•We study a stochastic downstream-constrained elective surgery scheduling problem.•We provide a two-level optimization model combining MDP and stochastic programming.•We solve the model via structural analysis and approximate dynamic programming.•The proposed model is compared to a conventional stochastic programming formulation.•Results show that the proposed model results in significantly lower long-term cost. |
