title: Operating room scheduling data base analysis for scheduling.
abstract: A methodology to determine and maintain the schedule times used in a computer-based OR Scheduling System is presented. State-of-the-art equations to be used for different scheduling situations are presented and discussed with the attendant data base reduction methodology to provide the scheduling parameters. An example is given of the data reduction methodology as well as suggestions for maintenance of the data base.
