Cyclical Nurse Scheduling in Shah Alam Hospital Using Goal Programming

A shift work schedule is extremely important to obtain the optimum result of work allocation since it involves 24 hours of continuous services. Every nurse could not avoid shift work schedule since their services are very important towards the patients in the hospital. The major objective of the stu...
