Abstract:

In this paper, a due date assignment scheduling problem with precedence constraints and controllable processing times in uncertain environment is investigated, in which the basic processing time of each job is assumed to be the symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy number, and the linear resource consumption function is used.The objective is to minimize the crisp possibilistic mean (or expected) value of a cost function thatincludes the costs of earliness, tardiness, makespan and resource consumption jointly by scheduling the jobs under precedence constraints and determining the due date and the resource allocation amount satisfying resource constraints for each job. First, the problem is shown to be NP-hard. Furthermore, an optimal algorithm with polynomial time for the special case of this problem is put forward. Moreover, an efficient 2-approximation algorithm is presented based on solving the relaxation of the problem. Finally, the numerical experiment is given, whose results show that our method is promising.

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...

The single-machine earliness-tardiness scheduling problem with due date assignment and resource-dependent processing times

We study the earliness-tardiness scheduling problem on a single machine with due date assignment and controllable processing times. We analyze the problem with three different due date assignment methods and two different processing time functions. For each combination of these, we provide a polynomialtime algorithm to find the optimal job sequence, due date values and resource allocation minim...

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...

Single Machine Scheduling with Controllable Processing Times by submodular Optimization

In scheduling with controllable processing times the actual processing time of each job is to be chosen from the interval between the smallest (compressed or fully crashed) value and the largest (decompressed or uncrashed) value. In the problems under consideration, the jobs are processed on a single machine and the quality of a schedule is measured by two functions: the maximum cost (that depe...

Three-machine Scheduling Problem with Precedence Constraints

This paper deals with a three-machine flow-shop problem in which some of the job sequences are infeasible. It is assumed that jobs are grouped into several disJoint subsets within which a job order is pre-determined. Once the first job in a group has started on a machine, then the entire group must be completed on the machine without starting a job which does not belong to the group. It is furt...
