Economically Augmented Job Shop Scheduling
نویسنده
چکیده
We present economically augmented job shop scheduling (EJSP) as an example of a coordination problem among selfinterested agents with private information. We discuss its significance in modern organizational supply-web structures, analyze its complexity and present a specific type of combinatorial auctions as a solution mechanism. We relate EJSP to results from the area of economic mechanism design and especially emphasize the need for solution mechanisms, which give the agents no incentive to lie. This requirement is a significant extension to the side constraints that are usually considered in the scheduling literature.

Economically Coordinated Job Shop Scheduling and Decision Point Bidding - An Example for Economic Coordination in Manufacturing and Logistics
We discuss the application of economic coordination mechanisms to scheduling problems in manufacturing and logistics. We use job shop scheduling as a sample problem domain. We study economically augmented job shop problems (EJSP) which comprise valuation information. We demonstrate how instances of EJSP can be mapped to combinatorial job shop auction problems (CJSAP). A discussion of the tracta...
متن کاملA New Approach in Job Shop Scheduling: Overlapping Operation
In this paper, a new approach to overlapping operations in job shop scheduling is presented. In many job shops, a customer demand can be met in more than one way for each job, where demand determines the quantity of each finished job ordered by a customer. In each job, embedded operations can be performed due to overlapping considerations in which each operation may be overlapped with the other...
متن کاملOptimality of the flexible job shop scheduling system based on Gravitational Search Algorithm
The Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP) is one of the most general and difficult of all traditional scheduling problems. The Flexible Job Shop Problem (FJSP) is an extension of the classical job shop scheduling problem which allows an operation to be processed by any machine from a given set. The problem is to assign each operation to a machine and to order the operations on the machine...

متن کاملFlexible job shop scheduling under availability constraints
In this paper, an exact geometric algorithm is presented for solving two-job sequencing and scheduling problems in flexible flow shop and job shop environments while the resources are (un)available in some time periods and processors (un)availability is the same in all work centers. This study seems utterly new and it is applicable to any performance measure based on the completion time. The in...
