Additional information

<22> We present a novel Case-Based Reasoning system called CABAROST to deal with the real-world nurse rostering problem at the Queens Medical Centre NHS Trust in Nottingham. The personnel scheduling problem is represented in terms of the constraints that should be satisfied. CABAROST captures nurse rostering experience from personnel managers for the purpose of solving future problems, by storing examples of their repairs of constraint violations. The method provides a flexible way to allow different managers to train the case-base independently, and thus provides a tool which is not bound by the understanding and bias of the algorithm developers.
