On scheduling problems with parallel multi-purpose machines
نویسنده
چکیده
In a multi-purpose machine scheduling problem, jobs can be processed by any machine of a prespecified subset of the machine-set. For the preemptive problem we give a combinatorial algorithm and obtain a min-max theorem for the minimal makespan. We give a combinatorial 2-approximation algorithm based on this algorithm for the non-preemptive case, which is NP-hard. We introduce a new special preemption rule: a job may be interrupted and resumed immediately on another machine. This version is also NP-hard, and a 2-approximation is presented.

Multi-Objective Unrelated Parallel Machines Scheduling with Sequence-Dependent Setup Times and Precedence Constraints
This paper presents a novel, multi-objective model of a parallel machines scheduling problem that minimizes the number of tardy jobs and total completion time of all jobs. In this model, machines are considered as unrelated parallel units with different speeds. In addition, there is some precedence, relating the jobs with non-identical due dates and their ready times. Sequence-dependent setup t...

This paper considers a scheduling problem of a set of independent jobs on unrelated parallel machines (UPMs) that minimizesthe maximum completion time (i.e., makespan or ), maximum earliness ( ), and maximum tardiness ( ) simultaneously. Jobs have non-identical due dates, sequence-dependent setup times and machine-dependentprocessing times. A multi-objective mixed-integer linear programmi...
