The abstract follows.
In this talk, we study the problem of generating personnel rosters that
are robust with respect to disruptions caused by employee absenteeism.
If an employee unexpectedly becomes absent, they must be replaced by
another employee. This in turn may affect the working hours of other
employees, creating an undesirable ripple effect that changes a large
part of the roster. We investigate how making use of on-call duties may
avoid such large perturbations. We begin by first introducing a metric
to quantify the robustness of a roster, which is then used to generate
sufficiently robust rosters. In the second part of this talk, we discuss
the conditions under which machine learning can lead to better
solutions. A novel methodology is presented to determine the minimum
prediction performance required to outperform the non-data-driven
rostering approach.
The next talk in our series will be:
André Rossi (Universite PSL) | April 3 | Maximizing stability of
assembly line balancing schedules under uncertain task duration
