Constraint Programming for Distributed Planning and Scheduling
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a constraint programming-based solver for distributed planning and scheduling problems with a hierarchical objective function. The solver produces provably optimal centralized solutions. Preliminary computational results show the efficiency of our approach.

Exact Mixed Integer Programming for Integrated Scheduling and Process Planning in Flexible Environment
This paper presented a mixed integer programming for integrated scheduling and process planning. The presented process plan included some orders with precedence relations similar to Multiple Traveling Salesman Problem (MTSP), which was categorized as an NP-hard problem. These types of problems are also called advanced planning because of simultaneously determining the appropriate sequence and m...
متن کاملAgent-based approach for cooperative scheduling
This paper studies the multi-factory production (MFP) network scheduling problem where a number of different individual factories join together to form a MFP network, in which these factories can operate more economically than operating individually. However, in such network which known as virtual production network with self-interested factories with transportation times, each individual facto...
متن کاملComparing Mixed-Integer and Constraint Programming for the No-Wait Flow Shop Problem with Due Date Constraints
The impetus for this research was examining a flow shop problem in which tasks were expected to be successively carried out with no time interval (i.e., no wait time) between them. For this reason, they should be completed by specific dates or deadlines. In this regard, the efficiency of the models was evaluated based on makespan. To solve the NP-Hard problem, we developed two mathematical mode...
متن کاملA stochastic model for operating room planning under uncertainty and equipment capacity constraints
In the present economic context, the operating theater is considered as a critical activity in health care management. This paper describes a model for operating room (OR) planning under constraint of a unique equipment. At first level we schedule elective surgeries under the uncertainty of using a unique equipment. At the second level we consider emergency surgeries, and at the third le...
متن کاملConstraint-based Scheduling
Constraint-based scheduling has become the dominant form of modeling and solving scheduling problems. Recently, due to ever more powerful embedded processors, it has become possible to embed and run constraint-based schedulers on-line even for fast processes such as product assembly sequencing. This makes constraint-based scheduling interesting to the control community as a new tool for system ...
