We consider the uniform parallel machines scheduling problem in the context of optimistic bilevel optimization, where two speed options are considered. In this scenario, the leader aims to minimize the weighted number of tardy jobs, while…
This paper considers the problem of scheduling jobs on single and parallel machines where all the jobs possess different processing times but a common due date. There is a penalty involved with each job if it is processed earlier or later…
In this paper we consider a combination of the joint replenishment problem (JRP) and single machine scheduling with release dates. There is a single machine and one or more item types. Each job has a release date, a positive processing…
In the current work we introduce a novel estimation of distribution algorithm to tackle a hard combinatorial optimization problem, namely the single-machine scheduling problem, with uncertain delivery times. The majority of the existing…
This thesis introduces stochastic generalized routing problem model and proposes exact and heuristic algorithms to solve it efficiently, in a wide range of problem sizes. At first, the classic routing problem with its common variations in…
A new class of multi agent single machine scheduling problems is introduced, where each job is associated with a self interested agent with a utility function decreasing in completion time. We aim to achieve a fair solution by maximizing…
The art of heuristic design has traditionally been a human pursuit. While Large Language Models (LLMs) can generate code for search heuristics, their application has largely been confined to adjusting simple functions within human-crafted…
In this paper a class of single machine scheduling problems is considered. It is assumed that job processing times and due dates can be uncertain and they are specified in the form of discrete scenario set. A probability distribution in the…
Machine scheduling problems involving conflict jobs can be seen as a constrained version of the classical scheduling problem, in which some jobs are conflict in the sense that they cannot be proceeded simultaneously on different machines.…
Resource constrained job scheduling is a hard combinatorial optimisation problem that originates in the mining industry. Off-the-shelf solvers cannot solve this problem satisfactorily in reasonable timeframes, while other solution methods…
Four lemmas, which constitute the theoretical foundation necessary to determine optimal control strategies for a class of single machine family scheduling problems, are presented in this technical report. The scheduling problem is…
In this paper, we develop a unified machine learning (ML) approach to predict high-quality solutions for single-machine scheduling problems with a non-decreasing min-sum objective function with or without release times. Our ML approach is…
We study the problem of scheduling jobs on parallel machines minimizing the total completion time, with each job using exactly one resource. First, we derive fundamental properties of the problem and show that the problem is polynomially…
The aim of this work is to present a meta-heuristically approach of the spatial assignment problem of human resources in multi-sites enterprise. Usually, this problem consists to move employees from one site to another based on one or more…
This paper introduces a three-phase heuristic approach for a large-scale energy management and maintenance scheduling problem. The problem is concerned with scheduling maintenance and refueling for nuclear power plants up to five years into…
In the problem called single resource constraint scheduling, we are given $m$ identical machines and a set of jobs, each needing one machine to be processed as well as a share of a limited renewable resource $R$. A schedule of these jobs is…
Backtracking search algorithms are often used to solve the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP). The efficiency of backtracking search depends greatly on the variable ordering heuristics. Currently, the most commonly used heuristics are…
The distributed schedule optimization of energy storage constitutes a challenge. Such algorithms often expect an input set containing all feasible schedules or respectively require to efficiently search the schedule space. It is hardly…
Scheduling Bag-of-Tasks (BoT) applications on the cloud can be more challenging than grid and cluster environ- ments. This is because a user may have a budgetary constraint or a deadline for executing the BoT application in order to keep…
Neural Combinatorial Optimization approaches have recently leveraged the expressiveness and flexibility of deep neural networks to learn efficient heuristics for hard Combinatorial Optimization (CO) problems. However, most of the current…
