Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
http://pnpm.univie.ac.at/minormajor-pnpm/At the beginning (first session), we will introduce to the method of linear optimization and demonstrate the application area of resource scheduling in public and non-profit management (PNPM).The first part of this course is how to provide goods and services in PNPM best, focuses on staff scheduling illustrated on the health care sector related to nurses and medical doctors. Next, we discuss models for nurse scheduling based on the literature. Finally, students solve nurse scheduling problems related to international literature. The students critically evaluate applied staff scheduling systems especially in the health care, disaster management, and education as well as other areas of PNPM.In the second part of this course, we apply benchmarking approaches to evaluate an optimal resource allocation (e.g., staff, equipment, capital) in Decision Making Units (DMUs) in PNPM (e.g., medical organizations, schools/universities, disaster management, environment, energy, sports/art/culture). We explain the method of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for benchmarking which is then applied on several examples together with the students.To promote connection to the practice, there will be an opportunity for an excursion to policymakers or to attend scientific talks.
Assessment and permitted materials
All oral & written homework assignments have to follow scientific guidelines: https://pnpm.univie.ac.at/minormajorwahlfach-pnpm/).

Please ONLY print one slide on ONE page on the front of the paper sheet! Please do NOT print on the back of the paper sheet!
• The quality of the printed version of the homeworks is part of the final grade.Presentation:
• Each presentation should take up to 30 minutes (10 minutes for small homeworks Ozkarahan/DEA and up to 20 minutes + 10 miutes discussion for main homework on staff scheduling).
• There should be a short discussion with the auditorium after the presentation. (5-10 minutes)
