Optimizing Rehabilitation and Maintenance of Hospitals by Ahmed, Mohamed

“…HOREM model is consisted of five modules as follows, (1) Reliability Centered Maintenance module that was used to define the components, functions, functional failure, failure modes, failure consequence and maintenance type for subsystems components, (2) fuzzy logic system module for determining the probability of failure of different replacement/restoration intervals, (3) Monte-Carlo simulation module determining the probability of failure of different inspection intervals, (4) Multi-objective maintenance optimization module that tradeoff between the downtime and maintenance costs and (5) Systems Integration optimization module that optimize the top management maintenance budget on hospitals subsystems. …”
