A New Approach in Job Shop Scheduling: Overlapping Operation

In this paper, a new approach to overlapping operations in job shop scheduling is presented. In many job shops, a customer demand can be met in more than one way for each job, where demand determines the quantity of each finished job ordered by a customer. In each job, embedded operations can be performed due to overlapping considerations in which each operation may be overlapped with the other...

A calculational approach to path-based properties of the Eisenstein-Stern and Stern-Brocot trees via matrix algebra

This paper proposes a calculational approach to prove properties of two well-known binary trees used to enumerate the rational numbers: the Stern-Brocot tree and the Eisenstein-Stern tree (also known as CalkinWilf tree). The calculational style of reasoning is enabled by a matrix formulation that is well-suited to naturally formulate path-based properties, since it provides a natural way to ref...
