چکیده

We consider the single-machine sequencing model with stochastic processing times and the problem of minimizing the number of stochastically tardy jobs. In general, this problem is NP-hard. Recently, however, van den Akker and Hoogeveen found some special cases that could be solved in polynomial time. We generalize their findings by providing a polynomial time solution for any stochastically ordered processing times.

Minimizing the Number of Tardy Jobs with Chance Constraints and Linearly Associated Stochastically Ordered Processing Times

Minimizing the Number of Tardy Jobs in the Single Machine Scheduling Problem under Bimodal Flexible and Periodic Availability Constraints

In single machine scheduling problems with availability constraints, machines are not available for one or more periods of time. In this paper, we consider a single machine scheduling problem with flexible and periodic availability constraints. In this problem, the maximum continuous working time for each machine increases in a stepwise manner with two different values allowed. Also, the durati...

A branch and bound algorithm to minimize the total weighted number of tardy jobs and delivery costs with late deliveries for a supply chain scheduling problem

In this paper, we study a supply chain scheduling problem that simultaneously considers production scheduling and product delivery.  jobs have to be scheduled on a single machine and delivered to  customers for further processing in batches. The objective is to minimize the sum of the total weighted number of tardy jobs and the delivery costs. In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm (HA...

Scheduling Jobs with Stochastically Ordered Processing times on Parallel Machines to Minimize Expected Flowtime

A number of jobs are to be processed using a number of identical machines which operate in parallel. The processing times of the jobs are stochastic, but have known distributions which are stochastically ordered. A reward r(t) is acquired when a job is completed at time t. The function r(t) is assumed to be convex and decreasing in t. It is shown that within the class of non-preemptive scheduli...

Minimizing Weighted Number of Tardy Jobs and Weighted Completion Time 1

In this paper, we present a novel O(N) algorithm to minimize the weighted number of tardy jobs with unit processing times, integer ready times and deadlines, and M homogeneous parallel machines, where N is the number of jobs to be scheduled. wi is the weight re ecting job i's importance, and Ui is 1 if job i is tardy and 0 otherwise, so P wiUi is the measure of performance. (In standard notatio...
