Abstract :
This paper presents a study on enhanced genetic operator within genetic algorithm for rostering on-call doctor. We review the literature on genetic operator approach method which focused on genetic operator. The enhanced genetic operator is to be used within genetic algorithm to generate Oncall doctor rostering. On call doctor rostering problems represent a subclass of scheduling problems that are complicated to be solved. The main goal is to propose new algorithm for genetic operator and also to find satisfying shift and resource assignments, satisfying the needs and requirements of employees as well as the employers in specific health care institutions.
