Abstract

Nurse Scheduling Problem is traditionally studied as a multi objective problem which aims at an optimum scheduling of nurse assignment to patients in a hospital. Remote healthcare is involved with providing quality care and medical assistance to patients based on remote monitoring. This paper presents an in-depth study of nurse scheduling algorithms. This study is followed with a description of the existing logics and the open issues. It also presents a heuristic framework with new features and a variable wait time based multi-parametric cost function for managing the dynamic NSP associated to remote healthcare.
