Optimization of Emergency Departmant by Agent Based Modelling

In terms of time, finance and workforce, the emergency services can be costly for hospitals. Optimisation of the emergency services are important to provide sustainable efficient emergency service with minimum cost and labor. Due to the uncertainty and complex structure of the emergency service, optimisation of such complex systems by using traditional methods does not give accurate results. Analytical model based decision support tools can be an alternative to the traditional methods. In this work, we model emergency service using an agent based modelling where a multi-objective optimisation method was used to minimize personal cost and patient waiting times.
