Algorithms for a class of single-machine weighted tardiness and earliness problems

چکیده
We address the problem of determining schedules for static, single-machine scheduling problems where the objective is to minimize the sum of weighted tardiness and weighted earliness. We develop optimal and heuristic procedures for the special case of weights that are proportional to the processing times of the respective jobs. The optimal procedure uses dominance properties to reduce the number of sequences that must be considered, and some of the heuristics use these properties as a basis for constructing good initial sequences. A pairwise interchange procedure is used to improve the heuristic solutions. An experimental study shows that the heuristic procedures perform very well.

Solving 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...

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...

The parallel machine scheduling problem is an important and difficult problem to be considered in the real-world situations. Traditionally, this problem consists of the scheduling of a set of independent jobs on parallel machines with the aim of minimizing the maximum job completion. In today's manufacturing systems, in which both early and tardy finishing of job processing are undesired, the o...

This paper addresses the Tardy/Lost penalty minimization on a single machine. According to this penalty criterion, if the tardiness of a job exceeds a predefined value, the job will be lost and penalized by a fixed value. Besides its application in real world problems, Tardy/Lost measure is a general form for popular objective functions like weighted tardiness, late work and tardiness with reje...
متن کاملMinimizing Total Weighted Tardiness with Drop Dead Dates in Single Machine Scheduling Problem
This paper deals with minimization of tardiness in single machine scheduling problem when each job has two different due-dates i.e. ordinary due-date and drop dead date. The drop dead date is the date in which jobs’ weights rise sharply or the customer cancels the order. A linear programming formulation is developed for the problem and since the problem is known to be NP-hard, three heuristic...
