Single-machine scheduling with periodic maintenance to minimize makespan

Single-machine scheduling with periodic maintenance to minimize makespan

We consider a single-machine scheduling problem with periodic maintenance activities. Although the scheduling problem with maintenance has attracted researchers’ attention, most of past studies considered only one maintenance period. In this research several maintenance periods are considered where each maintenance activity is scheduled after a periodic time interval. The objective is to find a...

JIT single machine scheduling problem with periodic preventive maintenance

This article investigates a JIT single machine scheduling problem with a periodic preventive maintenance. Also to maintain the quality of the products, there is a limitation on the maximum number of allowable jobs in each period. The proposed bi-objective mixed integer model minimizes total earliness-tardiness and makespan simultaneously. Due to the computational complexity of the problem, mult...

Single Machine Scheduling with Job Delivery to minimize makespan

In the single machine scheduling problem with job delivery to minimize makespan, jobs are processed on a single machine and delivered by a capacitated vehicle to their respective customers. We first consider the special case with a single customer, that is, all jobs have the same transportation time. Chang and Lee (2004) proved that this case is strongly NP-hard. They also provided a heuristic ...

Single-machine scheduling with periodic and flexible periodic maintenance to minimize maximum tardiness

Single-machine Scheduling with Periodic and Exible Periodic Maintenance to Minimize Maximum Tardiness

This paper considers a single machine scheduling problem with several mainte-nances periods. Specically, two situations are investigated. In the rst one, maintenance periods are periodically xed: maintenance is required after a periodic time interval. In the second one, the maintenance is not xed but the maximum continuous working time of the machine which is allowed is determined. The objectiv...
