Analysis of On-Line Algorithms for Due Date Quotation
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a novel model for due date quotation. Jobs arrive at a single server over time. Upon arrival, the processing time of each job is known, and due dates must be quoted for each job. The jobs must be sequenced on the server so that all jobs complete processing at or before their due dates, and the sum of quoted due dates is minimized. We develop several variations of an on-line heuristic for this problem, develop asymptotic probabilistic analytical bounds on the performance of this algorithm, and then perform extensive computational tests.

CAREER: Scheduling of Large-Scale Systems: Probabilistic Analysis and Practical Algorithms for Due Date Quotation
We present a novel single facility due-date quotation model and algorithm, and characterize the effectiveness of this algorithm employing the tools of probabilistic analysis. This model is intended to be a building block for the models that we will use to analyze due date quotation in make-to-order supply chains, and we present a summary of these models.
متن کاملSimultaneous Due Date Assignment and Lot Sizing with Uncertain Flow Times
Due date assignment for customer orders has been studied in various productionenvironments using different modeling approaches. In this paper the researchers consider aproduction system in which the orders of several customers are produced in a single batch because ofthe economy of scale. If a batch is completed before receiving customer orders, inventory carryingcost is incurred but if it is c...

متن کاملOn-Line Algorithms for Due Date Quotation with Lateness Penalties
We present a novel model for due date quotation. Jobs arrive at a single server or m-machine flow shop over time. Upon arrival, the processing times on each machine of the job are known, and due dates must be quoted for each job. The jobs are sequenced on the machines without preemption. Associated with each job, there are three measures of disadvantages to the inventory cost and the service le...
