“…For this reason, several mathematical models have appeared to improve equipment allocations where the cost is typically minimized. These plant layout models have resolved one-floor (Barbosa-Póvoa, Mateus, & Novais, 2001;Georgiadis, Schilling, Rotstein, & Macchietto, 1999), 2D multi-floor (Jayakumar & Reklaitis, 1994Papageorgiou & Rotstein, 1998;Patsiatzis & Papageorgiou, 2002), and even 3-D ( Barbosa-Póvoa, Mateus, & Novais, 2002;Georgiadis, Rotstein, & Macchietto, 1997;Westerlund, Papageorgiou, & Westerlund, 2007) problems.…”

“…These attempts were followed by mathematical programming approaches aimed at reaching optimal solutions. Mixed integer linear programming formulations were developed by Georgiadis et al (1999) to allocate items to candidate locations onto a grid or, in the continuous domain, for single or multiple-floor problems by Papageorgiou and Rotstein (1998), Papageorgiou (2002a, 2003), Ozyruth and Realff (1999), Barbosa-Povoa et al (2001).…”

“…Bozer and Meller (1997) compare basic modeling approaches for the facility layout problem. Barbosa-Póvoa et al (2001) propose a mixed-integer linear model to find the optimal two-dimensional layout. In a subsequent study, Barbosa-Póvoa et al (2002) extend their model to consider a threedimensional space.…”

A hierarchical facility layout planning approach for large and complex hospitals

The transportation processes for patients, personnel, and material in large and complex maximum-care hospitals with many departments can consume significant resources and thus induce substantial logistics costs. These costs are largely determined by the allocation of the different departments and wards in possibly multiple connected hospital buildings. We develop a hierarchical layout planning approach based on an analysis of organizational and operational data from the Hannover Medical School, a large and complex university hospital in Hannover, Germany.The purpose of this approach is to propose locations for departments and wards for a given system of buildings such that the consumption of resources due to those transportation processes is minimized. We apply the approach to this real-world organizational and operational dataset as well as to a fictitious hospital building and analyze the algorithmic behavior and resulting layout.
