Question
In your formulation, each one of the surgery blocks with indices i= 6 and 7 actually represents
an individual surgery. Furthermore, these surgeries are performed by the same surgeon. The
surgeon informs the surgical suite manager that he can benefit from parallel processing while
performing his surgeries, because the incision durations are relatively low for his surgeries.
Therefore, the manager concludes that the OR for surgery 6 must be different from the OR for
surgery 7. Considering this restriction for allocation, formulate a linear constraint to add into
the DORA formulation.
