چکیده
This paper relates to two stage specially structured flow shop scheduling problem with jobs in a string of disjoint job blocks having sequence independent setup times separated from processing times each associated with their respective probabilities, where the optimization criteria is the utilization time of machines. To minimize the utilization time an algorithm is proposed and a numerical example is given to validate the algorithm.

Minimization of Utilization Time for Two Stage Specially Structured Flow Shop Scheduling problem with Setup Time, Job Weightage and Jobs in a String of Disjoint Job Blocks
In this paper we study specially structured two stage flow shop scheduling problem with jobs in a string of disjoint job blocks having sequence independent setup times separated from processing times each associated with their respective probabilities including job weightage. In flow shop scheduling optimization of elapsed time may not always result in optimization of utilization time. Here, th...

متن کاملOptimal Two Stages Specially Structured Flow Shop Scheduling: Minimize the Rental Cost with Independent Setup Time
One of the earliest results in flow shop scheduling theory is an algorithm given by Johnson’s [1] for scheduling jobs on two or three machines to minimize the total elapsed time whenever the processing times of jobs are random. The present paper is an attempt to develop a heuristic algorithm for two stages specially structured flow shop scheduling in which the processing times of the jobs a...
