Abstract
Menu planning in hospitals is a complex decision problem. Patients expect the menu plan to be healthful and in accordance with their nutritional habits. Furthermore, the menu plan must conform to capacity limits of the kitchen. In this paper we present an approach to computerized food selection and menu composition. The model is based on nutritional knowledge, which is represented in the computer and used for problem solving.
