A Load Balancing Algorithm Inspired by the Honey Bee Behavior to Reduce Waiting Time in a Perinatal Network
Abstract
This paper considers the problem of efficient allocation of resources in the admission and scheduling process of pregnant women to a perinatal network composed of two maternities. For this, a load balancing algorithm based on the behavior of bees is used. It is shown, through the results obtained in the simulations, that the algorithm reduces the waiting time for pregnant women who enter the perinatal system, in comparison with other load-balancing algorithms found in the literature.
