Minimizing the earliness and tardiness cost of a sequence of tasks on a single machine

Philippe Chrétienne — 2001

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

Assume that n tasks must be processed by one machine in a fixed sequence. The processing time, the preferred starting time and the earliness and tardiness costs per time unit are known for each task. The problem is to allocate each task a starting time such that the total cost incurred by the early and tardy tasks is minimum. Garey et al. have proposed a nice O ( n log n ) algorithm for the special case of symmetric and task-independent costs. In this paper we first extend that algorithm to the case of asymmetric...

Une méthode tabou pour l'ordonnancement multiprocesseur avec délais de communication

Dalila TayachiPhilippe ChrétienneKhaled Mellouli — 2010

RAIRO - Operations Research

This paper deals with the problem of scheduling tasks on identical processors in the presence of communication delays. A new approach of modelisation by a decision graph and a resolution by a tabu search method is proposed. Initial solutions are constructed by list algorithms, and then improved by a tabu algorithm operating in two phases. The experiments carried on arbitrary graphs show the efficiency of our method and that it outperformed the principle existent heuristics.
