Abstract: Abstract In this chapter we review the relevant literature for our work. In Sect. 2.1 we start with reviewing the general personnel scheduling literature and some classification schemes. In Sect. 2.2 we summarize the relevant work on physician scheduling. Afterwards we review in Sect. 2.3 work on implicit modeling techniques which is required for the new implicit shift modeling approach to schedule physicians in a hospital given in Chap. 3. Finally, we conclude in Sect. 2.4 with a focus on research that considers column generation approaches and B&P methodologies for personnel scheduling problems in the service industry. This is the relevant literature for Chap. 4 where we present a new column generation and B&P approach for the flexible shift scheduling of physicians in a hospital.
