The goal of this project is to develop a simulation tool which provides a graphical visualization of a dynamic queue management framework for the hospitals’ emergency department (ED). The framework makes use of several queuing theory algorithm such as Shortest Job First or Shortest Remaining Time First to improve on patients’ length of stay in the ED. The research work is largely based on the dissertation of our faculty member, Assistant Professor (Practice) Tan Kar Way.This simulation system will aid to persuade various hospitals the feasibility of this model.
