Batch scheduling on two-machine flowshop with machine-dependent setup times.
Batch scheduling problem with due-date and fuzzy precedence relation
A single-machine batch scheduling problem is investigated. Each job has a positive processing time and due-date. Setup times are assumed to be identical for all batches. All batch sizes cannot exceed a common upper bound. As in many practical situations, jobs have to be subject to flexible precedence constraints. The aim of this paper is to find an optimal batch sequence. The sequence is to minimize the maximal completion time and maximize the minimum value of desirability of the fuzzy precedence....
Branch-and-bound algorithm for total weighted tardiness minimization on parallel machines under release dates assumptions
This paper deals with the parallel-machine scheduling problem with the aim of minimizing the total (weighted) tardiness under the assumption of different release dates. This problem has been proven to be NP-hard. We introduce some new lower and upper bounds based on different approaches. We propose a branch-and-bound algorithm to solve the weighted and unweighted total tardiness. Computational experiments were performed on a large set of instances...
