Two-machine flowshop scheduling to minimize makespan is one of the most well-known classical scheduling problems. Johnson's rule for solving this problem has been widely cited in the literature. We introduce in this paper the concept of composite job, which is an artificially constructed job with processing times such that it will incur the same amount of idle time on the second machine as that...

It is well known that except in the case of makespan problems, there are hardly any analytical results for flowshop problems. This paper considers of a class of flowshop problems where job processing time at a machine is proportionate to the processing time on the first machine. We show that for the pre-emptive version of the problem, in order to minimize any regular measure of performance, it ...

Flowshop is an example of a classic hard combinatorial problem. Branch-and-bound is a technique commonly used for solving such hard problems. Together, the two can be used as a benchmark of maturity of parallel processing environment. Grid systems pose a number of hurdles which must be overcome in practical applications. We give a report on applying parallel branch-and-bound for flowshop in gri...

In this article, we present a study that compares variants of two ACO algorithms designed to tackle a biobjective permutation flowshop scheduling problem where the makespan and the total tardiness are the objectives considered. These two algorithms use respectively one and two pheromone matrices. The analysis of the results gives indications on the choices to adopt when designing an ACO approac...

We study a 2-machine flowshop in which all processing times are independently and identically distributed, with values known to the scheduler. We are able to describe in detail the expected behavior of the flowshop under optimal and under heuristic schedules. Our results suggest that minimizing makespan might be a superfluous objective: Scheduling the jobs randomly requires less information and...

The flowshop problem (FSP) is one of the most thoroughly studied scheduling problems. In the FSP, a set N = {1, . . . , n} of n independent jobs has to be processed on a set M = {1, . . . ,m} of m machines. Every job j, j ∈ N , requires a given fixed, non-negative processing time pij on every machine i, i ∈ M . In a flowshop, all n jobs are to be processed on the m machines in the same order, t...

Flowshop scheduling problems have been extensively studied by several authors using different approaches. A typical flowshop process consists of successive manufacturing stages arranged in a single production line where different jobs have to be processed following a predefined production recipe. In this work, the scheduling of a complex flowshop process involving automated wet-etch station fro...

Flowshop scheduling is a very active research area. This problem still attracts a considerable amount of interest despite the sheer amount of available results. Total flowtime minimization of a flowshop has been actively studied and many effective algorithms have been proposed in the last few years. New best solutions have been found for common benchmarks at a rapid pace. However, these improve...

The general flowshop scheduling problem is a production problem where a set of n jobs have to be processed with identical flow pattern on m machines. In permutation flowshops the sequence of jobs is the same on all machines. A significant research effort has been devoted for sequencing jobs in a flowshop minimizing the makespan. This paper describes the application of a Constructive Genetic Alg...

Scheduling in chemical flowshops is one of a number of important industrial problems which are potentially amenable to solution using the genetic algorithm. However the problem is not trivial: flowshops run continuously, and for efficient operation those controlling them must be able to adjust the order in which products are made as new requests are received. In addition, there are in principle...
