ANALYSIS METHODOLOGIES Sample Clauses

ANALYSIS METHODOLOGIES. Research methodologies used in outpatient scheduling literature can be divided in analytical procedures versus simulation. Analytical methods include queuing theory and mathematical programming (dynamic programming, nonlinear programming, stochastic linear programming) (Cayirli & Veral, 2003). The drawback of analytical methods is that they have difficulties dealing with complex environments. For example, the distributions that can be used to model environmental factors such as service time are limited. Moreover, queuing theory assumes steady-state behavior of the system. It estimates the long-term behavior of the system when equilibrium between its input rate and its output rate is reached. For the steady-state assumption to hold, it implies that the queuing system must be open 24/7 for an infinite number of years and there must be an infinite number of patients arriving to the system. This steady-state behavior is never reached in a real clinic environment where a given clinic session involves only a finite number of patients (Xxxxxx, 1954).
