Simulate Doctor Visit Resource Planning Using Simmer

Here I’ve tried to come up with a simple layout on how we might simulate doctor’s visits. Following code tries to resource plan certain doctor visits based on the vignette that was provided with the simmer package. library(simmer) set.seed(42) env <- simmer("SuperDuperSim") env patient <- trajectory("patients' path") %>% ## add an intake activity seize("nurse", 1) %>% timeout(function() rnorm(1, 15)) %>% release("nurse", 1) %>% ## add a consultation activity seize("doctor", 1) %>% timeout(function() rnorm(1, 20)) %>% release("doctor", 1) %>% ## add a planning activity seize("administration", 1) %>% timeout(function() rnorm(1, 5)) %>% release("administration", 1) env %>% add_resource("nurse", 1) %>% add_resource("doctor", 2) %>% add_resource("administration", 1) %>% add_generator("patient", patient, function() rnorm(1, 10, 2)) env %>% run(80) %>% now() env %>% peek(3) env %>% stepn() %>% # 1 step print() %>% stepn(3) # 3 steps envs <- lapply(1:100, function(i) { simmer("SuperDuperSim") %>% add_resource("nurse", 1) %>% add_resource("doctor", 2) %>% add_resource("administration", 1) %>% add_generator("patient", patient, function() rnorm(1, 10, 2)) %>% run(80) }) envs %>% get_mon_resources() %>% head() envs %>% get_mon_arrivals() %>% head()
