A discrete-event simulation tool for hospital Emergency Room staffing optimization. Model patient flow, analyze doctor utilization, and test various staffing scenarios under realistic conditions including absenteeism.
- Multi-scenario Simulation: Test different doctor counts in parallel
- Realistic Modeling: Exponential arrivals, lognormal treatment times
- Absenteeism Impact: See how staff availability affects wait times
- Interactive Dashboard: Real-time parameter adjustment
- Data Export: Download results for further analysis
- Python 3.8 or higher
