Abstract;We propose a novel constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) for constructing a nurse scheduling system introduced fixed team nursing. There is a problem that isn't to be able to do responsible nursing in an existing nursing form. The fixed team nursing is one of the new nursing forms for solving the problem. Then, we think about the construction of the nurse scheduling system that can consider the fixed team nursing. The system can be constructed by adding the constraint of the fixed team nursing to an existing system. However, it is difficult to obtain the result of considering fixed team nursing in the method, because the constraint of the fixed team nursing is buried in other constraint. Then, we propose a novel CSP that the fixed team nursing can be considered. It is shown for the computational speed to improve by introducing the new CSP more than an existing system, and to be able to consider fixed team nursing. (author abst.)
