GENETIC AND TABU SEARCH ALGORITHMS FOR THE SINGLE MACHINE SCHEDULING PROBLEM WITH SEQUENCE-DEPENDENT SET-UP TIMES AND DETERIORATING JOBS

author

Abstract:

 This paper introduces the effects of job deterioration and sequence dependent set- up time in a single machine scheduling problem. The considered optimization criterion is the minimization of the makespan (Cmax). For this purpose, after formulating the mathematical model, genetic and tabu search algorithms were developed for the problem. Since population diversity is a very important issue in preventing from being trapped in a local optimum, two methods were used to overcome this problem. Because of the novelty of the considered problem, there was no standard benchmark available to test the developed algorithms, so the results were checked by a lower bound which was calculated by a procedure that emphasizes on job deterioration effects. The tests and evaluations illustrate the effectiveness of the presented algorithms.

Single Machine Scheduling Problem with Precedence Constraints and Deteriorating Jobs

This paper considers the single machine scheduling problem with precedence constraints and deteriorating jobs. A mathematical model based on binary integer programming (BIP) is developed. By these precedence constraints, jobs can not start before completion of its all predecessors. The represented model is in two steps, in step one the earliest starting time of each job is computed, then the re...

A three-stage assembly flow shop scheduling problem with blocking and sequence-dependent set up times

This paper considers a three-stage assembly flowshop scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup < /div> times at the first stage and blocking times between each stage in such a way that the weighted mean completion time and makespan are minimized. Obtaining an optimal solution for this type of complex, large-sized problem in reasonable computational time using traditiona...

Single-machine scheduling with past-sequence-dependent delivery times and deteriorating jobs

This paper addresses some single-machine scheduling problems with past-sequence-dependent (p-s-d) delivery times and deteriorating jobs. By the past-sequence-dependent (p-s-d) delivery times, we mean that the delivery time of any job is proportional to the job’s waiting time. It is assumed that the deterioration process reflects a increase in the process time as a function of the job’s starting...

A Flow shop Production Planning Problem with basic period policy and Sequence Dependent set up times

Many authors have examined lot sizing, scheduling and sequence of multi-product flow shops, but most of them have assumed that set up times are independent of sequence. Whereas dependence of set up times to sequence is more common in practice. Hence, in this paper, we examine the discussed problem with hypothesis of dependence of set up times to sequence and cyclic schedule policy in basic peri...

Single Machine Scheduling Problem with Precedence Constraints and Deteriorating Jobs

This paper considers the single machine scheduling problem with precedence constraints and deteriorating jobs and a mathematical model based on binary integer programming (BIP) is developed. Since the precedence constraints exist, a job cannot start before completion of its all predecessors. The proposed model consists of two steps: in the first step, the earliest starting time of each job is c...
