    ANNULÉ/CANCELED: Middlware et la E-santé - Application et adaptation pour le Maroc

    • Khalid EL YASSINI, presenter, Université Moulay Ismail
    • Kenza OUFASKA, Université Internationale de Rabat

    L’Internet des Objets (IoT) se base sur un ensemble de technologies et de sous-systèmes qui doivent être interconnectés et interfacés les uns avec les autres en temps réel en adoptant des normes adéquates pour la mesure, la communication, l'intégration, l'interopérabilité et le contrôle. Parmi les solutions axées sur l'interopérabilité, il convient de mentionner les middlewares. Un middleware ou intergiciel est un logiciel tiers qui crée un réseau d'échange d'informations entre différentes applications informatiques.
    Dans cet article, nous allons nous concentrer sur les défis middleware, rechercher les fonctionnalités qu'un middleware peut offrir pour la couche application dans les systèmes sur lesquels se base IoT dans le monde de la santé et enfin proposer une architecture pour intégrer les middlewares dans l’internet des objets.
    Mots clés : Internet des objets, Middleware, E-health.

    Hospitals' Food Supply Chain Management: A Multi-Objective Dynamic Programming Approach

    • Fereshteh Mafakheri, presenter, Concordia University

    Management of food supply chains for hospitals is a critical task due to varied technical, regulatory, and dietary requirements. We propose a two-stage multi-objective dynamic programming approach to formulate the hospitals’ food supply chain management. We consider inpatients dietary requirements, health and safety standards, and waste management guidelines as constraints.

  • 11:20 AM - 11:45 AM

    Operating room scheduling with downstream constraints

    • Arnaud Augustin, presenter, Polytechnique Montréal
    • Louis-Martin Rousseau, Polytechnique Montréal
    • Nadia Lahrichi, Polytechnique Montréal
    • Andrea Lodi, Polytechnique Montreal

    This project aims at developing a decision support system for the scheduling of the Sainte-Justine hospital’s operating block. Improving its efficiency is synonym of better quality care and of substantial economies. Moreover, the intensive care unit imposes downstream constraints that must be taken into account so as to avoid cancellations.

  • 11:45 AM - 12:10 PM

    Issuing Policies for Hospital Blood Inventory

    • Alireza Sabouri, presenter, University of Calgary
    • Tim Huh, University of British Columbia
    • Steven Shechter, University of British Columbia

    We propose a model for allocating red blood cells for transfusion to patients, which is motivated by recent evidence suggesting that transfusing older blood is associated with increased mortality rate. We study the properties of blood issuance policies that balance the trade-off between “quality” measured in average age of blood transfused and “efficiency” measured in the amount of shortage. Based on our analysis, we design efficient issuance policies and evaluate their performance.
