Parallel Genetic Algorithmic approach for solving NRP

Nurse Rostering is a complex problem which arises in everyday activities and health care system in modern hospitals. The Nurse Rostering Problem is a subclass of the personnel scheduling problems, and most of its instances are NP-hard. Even though solving the Nurse Rostering Problem has been interested field for research from many years, still the Nurse Rostering done by manually. Meta heuristics GA, have been proved to be very efficient in obtaining near-optimal solutions for a variety of hard combinatorial problems including the NRP. Heuristics Algorithm have shown excellent search abilities, but often lose their efficacy when applied to large and complex problems, Many optimization methods suffer from the curse of dimensionality, which shown that their performance deteriorates quickly as the dimensionality of the search space increases. Need to provide some degree of parallelism in traditional approach. Nowadays, GPGPUs are able to provide the necessary computational resources to tackle these high-dimensional problems maintaining a limited execution time and a high portability.
