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...

data grid is an infrastructure that controls huge amount of data files, and provides intensive computational resources across geographically distributed collaboration. the heterogeneity and geographic dispersion of grid resources and applications place some complex problems such as job scheduling. most existing scheduling algorithms in grids only focus on one kind of grid jobs which can be data...

Job scheduling under the cloud circumstance is the key techniques to impact on frequency of cloud calculation. Trust relationship is an important factor of cloud calculation and job scheduling. In order to satisfy the requirement of quality of cloud calculation service for job scheduling, this article introduced the term of trust mechanism and apply it to cloud calculation and job scheduling. I...

In dynamic environment of data grid effective job scheduling methods consider location of required data in dispatching jobs to resources. Also, job scheduling methods are combined with data replication mechanisms to reduce remote data access as well as save network bandwidth. In this paper, we combine job scheduling method and dynamic data replication to reduce data access delay and job executi...

scheduling for job shop is very important in both fields of production management and combinatorial op-timization. however, it is quite difficult to achieve an optimal solution to this problem with traditional opti-mization approaches owing to the high computational complexity. the combination of several optimization criteria induces additional complexity and new problems. in this paper, we pro...

In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of the dynamic job shop scheduling problem when machine breakdown and new job arrivals occur. A hybrid approach involving neural networks(NNs) and geneticalgorithm(GA) is presented to solve the dynamic job shop scheduling problem as a static scheduling problem. The objective of this kind of job shop scheduling problem is minimizing the completion ti...

This paper is concerned with detailed scheduling of job-shop like manufacturing systems. It addresses the scheduling of jobs, either simple, requiring the manufacture of a batch of parts, i.e. simple products, or complex, comprehending the parts fabrication and their multistage assembly into a batch of products. The Product-oriented Scheduling approach was adopted, assuming that full scheduling...

Two major problems in grid computing applications are, resource management and job scheduling. These problems do occur due to distributed and heterogeneous nature of the resources. This paper introduces a model in job scheduling in grid computing environments. A dynamic scheduling algorithm is proposed to maximize the resource utilization and minimize processing time of the jobs. The proposed a...
