A GRASP for Parallel Machine Scheduling with Time Windows

T paper presents a greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (GRASP) for scheduling n jobs on m nonhomogeneous parallel machines with time windows. An additional feature of the problem is that each job falls into one of priority classes. The objective is to maximize the number of jobs scheduled, where a job in a higher priority class has infinitely more value than a job in a lower priority cl...

Two-stage fuzzy-stochastic programming for parallel machine scheduling problem with machine deterioration and operator learning effect

This paper deals with the determination of machine numbers and production schedules in manufacturing environments. In this line, a two-stage fuzzy stochastic programming model is discussed with fuzzy processing times where both deterioration and learning effects are evaluated simultaneously. The first stage focuses on the type and number of machines in order to minimize the total costs associat...

A note on "Single-machine scheduling with general learning functions"

The recent paper ‘‘Single-machine scheduling with general learning functions’’ (Wang [1]) addresses the single-machine scheduling problems with a sum-of-processing-times-based learning effect. The author showed that that the shortest processing time (SPT) rule is optimal for the sum of completion times square minimization problem. He also showed by examples that the optimal schedule for the cla...
