[APDIO] "Scheduling in Healthcare" - EURO 2016

[Maria Eugénia Vasconcelos Captivo <mecaptivo@fc.ul.pt>]

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to contribute to the stream "Scheduling in Healthcare" we are organizing for the EURO 2016 
conference that will be held in Poznan, Poland, (July 3-6, http://www.euro2016.poznan.pl/).
The stream aims at exploring state-of-the-art OR techniques and to provide an overview on new significant approaches 
and methods in the large and complex field of scheduling health care activities, including but not limited to:

 - Activity planning and scheduling in Health Care, including, but not limited to:
- Operating room planning and scheduling
- Generic modelling of planning and scheduling problems for various types of examinations and treatment, for both in- and outpatients
- Integration of planning and scheduling (today, these are mostly kept separate due to complexity, at least for longer planning horizons)
- Planning and scheduling under uncertainty, with a focus on recourse actions involving rescheduling and maximizing plan stability and robustness
- Efficient re-scheduling, considering regular and non-regular objectives
 - People planning and scheduling in Health Care, including, but not limited to:
- Nurse and doctor scheduling
- Workforce scheduling based on forecasted demand
 - Home Health Care Scheduling
 - Online and Flexible scheduling in health care
