Minimum Dissatisfaction Personnel Scheduling

In this paper we consider two problems regarding the scheduling of available personnel in order to perform a given quantity of work, which can be arbitrarily decomposed into a sequence of activities. We are interested in schedules which minimize the overall dissatisfaction, where each employee's dissatisfaction is modeled as a time-dependent linear function. For the two situations considered we provide a detailed mathematical analysis, as well as efficient algorithms for determining optimal schedules.

Inferring Company Structure from Limited Available Information

In this paper we present several algorithmic techniques for inferring the structure of a company when only a limited amount of information is available. We consider problems with two types of inputs: the number of pairs of employees with a given property and restricted information about the hierarchical structure of the company. We provide dynamic programming and greedy algorithms for these problems.

Efficient Algorithms for Several Constrained Activity Scheduling Problems in the Time and Space Domains

In this paper we consider several constrained activity scheduling problems in the time and space domains, like finding activity orderings which optimize the values of several objective functions (time scheduling) or finding optimal locations where certain types of activities will take place (space scheduling). We present novel, efficient algorithmic solutions for all the considered problems, based on the dynamic programming and greedy techniques. In each case we compute exact, optimal solutions.
