In this paper, we first introduce a generalized version of open shop scheduling (OSS), called generalized cyclic open shop scheduling (GCOSS) and then develop a hybrid method of metaheuristic to solve this problem. Open shop scheduling is concerned with processing n jobs on m machines, where each job has exactly m operations and operation i of each job has to be processed on machine i . However...

in some industries as foundries, it is not technically feasible to interrupt a processor between jobs. this restriction gives rise to a scheduling problem called no-idle scheduling. this paper deals with scheduling of no-idle open shops to minimize maximum completion time of jobs, called makespan. the problem is first mathematically formulated by three different mixed integer linear programming...

in this paper, a new approach to overlapping operations in job shop scheduling is presented. in many job shops, a customer demand can be met in more than one way for each job, where demand determines the quantity of each finished job ordered by a customer. in each job, embedded operations can be performed due to overlapping considerations in which each operation may be overlapped with the other...

We consider several combinatorial optimization problems which combine the classic shop scheduling problems, namely open shop scheduling or job shop scheduling, and the shortest path problem. The objective of the obtained problem is to select a subset of jobs that forms a feasible solution of the shortest path problem, and to execute the selected jobs on the open (or job) shop machines to minimi...
