Abstract


Nurse rostering problem is to construct a nurse roster for a given period, which is NP-hard. In this paper, we apply cuckoo search algorithm to the problem and adjust the parameters of the algorithm through experiments. We show that the proposed algorithm performed well under many circumstances by comparison between our algorithm and other approximation algorithms.
