| Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Medical Imaging Centers (MIC) are critical units in every
hospital or medical center because they are an important
step in generating a patient’s diagnostic. This paper shows
a simulator designed to facilitate the development of simulation
studies of MIC, which departs from traditional modeling
because it uses a pull paradigm for the patients. A
group technology approach was used to minimize the
number of objects in the simulator, which includes objects
that have the functionality of the equipments and processes
found in these facilities, so that the analyst only needs to
provide the parameters of the center. All the data is provided
to the simulator through a Graphic User Interface
(GUI), requiring no programming capacities. As an application
of the simulator, an example is provided where the
simulator is used to improve the waiting times and equipment
rate of utilization at a research hospital in Chile. | en_US |
