Most of the hospitals are facing a serious problem which is having an inefficient scheduling system for the operation theatre. Operation theatre scheduling is still done manually. In order to develop a systematic Operation Theatre Scheduling System, it is necessary to develop an automated scheduling system for the Anaesthesiology Department as it is the core component in a hospital. This Anaesthesiology Department Scheduling System will keep the anaesthesiologists updated on their weekly schedule as well reduce their workload of creating the weekly schedule. There are mainly three scheduling strategies that can be used in constructing the Anaesthesiology Department Scheduling System which are the open scheduling strategy, block scheduling strategy and the modified block scheduling strategy. Interviews and surveys have been conducted as part for requirements gathering in order to develop the scheduling system. This research will focus on developing scheduling system specifically for the Anaesthesiology Department for Hospital Bainun, Perak.
