Single-machine Scheduling with Tool Changes: A Constraint-based Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper addresses the scheduling of a single machine with tool changes in order to minimize total completion time. A constraint-based model is proposed that makes use of global constraints and also incorporates various dominance rules. With these techniques, our constraint-based approach outperforms previous exact

An Efficient Bi-objective Genetic Algorithm for the Single Batch-Processing Machine Scheduling Problem with Sequence Dependent Family Setup Time and Non-identical Job Sizes
This paper considers the problem of minimizing make-span and maximum tardiness simultaneously for scheduling jobs under non-identical job sizes, dynamic job arrivals, incompatible job families,and sequence-dependentfamily setup time on the single batch- processor, where split size of jobs is allowed between batches. At first, a new Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model is proposed for t...
متن کاملA Possibility Linear Programming Approach to Solve a Fuzzy Single Machine Scheduling Problem
This paper employs an interactive possibility linear programming approach to solve a single machine scheduling problem with imprecise processing times, due dates, as well as earliness and tardiness penalties of jobs. The proposed approach is based on a strategy of minimizing the most possible value of the imprecise total costs, maximizing the possibility of obtaining a lower total costs, and mi...
متن کاملMachine scheduling for multitask machining
Multitasking is an important part of today’s manufacturing plants. Multitask machine tools are capable of processing multiple operations at the same time by applying a different set of part and tool holding devices. Mill-turns are multitask machines with the ability to perform a variety of operations with considerable accuracy and agility. One critical factor in simultaneous machining is to cre...
متن کاملScheduling with uncertain durations: generating β-robust schedules using constraint programming
Many real-world scheduling problems are subject to change, and scheduling solutions should be robust to those changes. We consider a single-machine scheduling problem where the processing time of each activity is characterized by a normally-distributed random variable, and we attempt to minimize flowtime. We develop an initial constraint model for generating the β-robust schedule the schedule t...
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...
