From the reviews:
“This book provides a comprehensive review of the application of sophisticated scheduling methods throughout the healthcare delivery system. ... A number of the chapters outline outstanding research needs. Each chapter provides numerous references to relevant literature to enable interested readers to explore individual topics in greater detail. ... Handbook of Healthcare System Scheduling will help to encourage further research into this important area and greater application of sophisticated scheduling methods within our medical care delivery system.” (George Miller, Interfaces, Vol. 43 (3), May-June, 2013)
“This book promotes healthcare efficiency and improved patient care by examining the multiple dimensions of scheduling. The purpose is to improve healthcare delivery through better scheduling of healthcare resources. ... The purpose is achieved through a discussion of the technical aspects of scheduling that includes patterns of human behavior. This is ideal for those involved in healthcare operations and management. ... This solution-oriented book should please and enlighten healthcare managers and those involved in healthcare operations.” (Robin T. Reesal, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2012)Randolph Hall is a Professor in the Epstein Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, and Vice Provost for Research Advancement, at the University of Southern California. He has previously edited books on Transportation Science and Patient Flow, as well as written the text Queueing Methods for Services and Manufacturing. He has worked with numerous hospitals on redesign of care delivery under the sponsorship of the California Healthcare Foundation, LA Care and the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. Dr. Hall holds a Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in civil engineering, and a B.S. in industrial engineering and operations research, from the University of California at Berkeley.
