A Graphical Approach for Solving Single Machine Scheduling Problems Approximately
نویسندگان
چکیده
For five single machine total tardiness problems a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) based on a graphical algorithm is presented. The FPTAS has the best running time among the known approximation schemes for these problems.

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...
متن کاملNet Present Value of Cash Flows in Single Machine and Flow Shop Scheduling Problems
While a great portion of the scheduling literature focuses on time-based criteria, the most important goal of management is maximizing the profitability of the firm. In this paper, the net preset value criterion is studied taking account of linear time-dependent cash flows in single machine and flow shop scheduling problems. First, a heuristic method is presented for the single machine scheduli...

متن کاملSingle-machine scheduling considering carryover sequence-dependent setup time, and earliness and tardiness penalties of production
Production scheduling is one of the very important problems that industry and production are confronted with it. Production scheduling is often planned in the industrial environments while productivity in production can improve significantly the expansion of simultaneous optimization of the scheduling plan. Production scheduling and production are two areas that have attracted much attention in...
متن کاملSolving the Single Machine Problem with Quadratic Earliness and Tardiness Penalties
Nowadays, scheduling problems have a considerable application in production and service systems. In this paper, we consider the scheduling of n jobs on a single machine assuming no machine idleness, non-preemptive jobs and equal process times. In many of previous researches, because of the delivery dalays and holding costs, earliness and tardiness penalties emerge in the form of linear combin...
