Personnel Scheduling in HARMONY
نویسندگان
چکیده
The mission of ORTEC, and specifically of HARMONY, is to provide planners and managers access to the benefits of mathematics, and operations research in particular. The basic philosophy of HARMONY is to integrate workforce management with administrative and (other) logistic processes of an organisation and to enrich decision-making within workforce management by OR/MS techniques. The integral approach of workforce management distinguishes HARMONY from most of the studies in the OR/MS literature. Furthermore, HARMONY offers an environment to embed algorithms that add value to planners in the real world.

A New model for integrated lot sizing and scheduling in flexible job shop problem
In this paper an integrated lot-sizing and scheduling problem in a flexible job shop environment with machine-capacity-constraint is studied. The main objective is to minimize the total cost which includes the inventory costs, production costs and the costs of machine’s idle times. First, a new mixed integer programming model,with small bucket time approach,based onProportional Lot sizing and S...
متن کاملNew Formulation and Solution in PCB Assembly Systems with Parallel Batch processors
This paper considers the scheduling problem of parallel batch processing machines with non-identical job size and processing time. In this paper, a new mathematical model with ready time and batch size constraints is presented to formulate the problem mathematically, in which simultaneous reduction of the makespan and earliness-tardiness is the objective function. In recent years, the nature-in...

In this paper, we present a new idea for robust project scheduling combined with a cost-oriented uncertainty investigation. The result of the new approach is a makespan minimal robust proactive schedule, which is immune against the uncertainties in the activity durations and which can be evaluated from a cost-oriented point of view on the set of the uncertain-but-bounded duration and cost param...
متن کاملIndependent Task Scheduling by Hybrid Algorithm of Harmony Search and Variable Neighborhood Search
A new hybrid algorithm is proposed in this paper. An independent task scheduling algorithm is designed based on the hybrid algorithm. The hybrid algorithm adopt list scheduling method to code harmony solution and convert harmony vector to priority-based independent task scheduling model, and perform variable neighborhood search on harmony solutions to improve Harmony Search efficiency and solut...
متن کاملPareto-based grouping discrete harmony search algorithm for multi-objective flexible job shop scheduling
This paper proposes a Pareto-based grouping discrete harmony search algorithm (PGDHS) to solve the multi-objective flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP). Two objectives, namely the maximum completion time (makespan) and the mean of earliness and tardiness, are considered simultaneously. Firstly, two novel heuristics and several existing heuristics are employed to initialize the harmony me...
