evenNet Queuing Model

Introduction

evenNet is a simplified queuing model simulator used for hospital outpatient operation management

It supports many kinds of settings that are pratical in real hospitals

• Multi-stations: clinics, examination stations, etc.
• User-defined transition probability between multi-staions (networks)
• Multi-class of patients: new patients / re-visit patients ...
• Possibility for patients classes change: after examination, prev new patients => re-visit patients
• Records for a variety of performance measures

See the ciw for more general queuing network.

Documents

Try and start with simple case, with [one station], [one class of patient], [three doctors in outpatint clinics]

python simulation.py --case "basic_3"

for more advanced assumptions you could try and compare their performance measures

python simulation.py --case "basic_4"
python simulation.py --case "homo_class_with_transition"
python simulation.py --case "hetero_class_with_transition"
python simulation.py --case "priority"
python simulation.py --case "class_change"

By default case, records will be output as all_records.csv, you could change it by setting args.write_csv = False or specify another output path by specifying args.path = "<file_path>"
