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…

We study the problem of designing systems in order to minimize cost while meeting a given flexibility target. Flexibility is attained by enforcing a joint chance constraint, which ensures that the system will exhibit feasible operation with…

This study introduces a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model, effectively co-optimizing patrolling, damage assessment, fault isolation, repair, and load re-energization processes. The model is designed to solve a vital operational…

Open-pit mine scheduling is a complex real world optimization problem that involves uncertain economic values and dynamically changing resource capacities. Evolutionary algorithms are particularly effective in these scenarios, as they can…

Robust optimization is becoming increasingly important in machine learning applications. In this paper, we study a unified framework of robust submodular optimization. We study this problem both from a minimization and maximization…

Project scheduling in manufacturing environments often requires flexibility in terms of the selection and the exact length of alternative production activities. Moreover, the simultaneous scheduling of multiple lots is mandatory in many…

Unit maintenance and unit commitment are two critical and interrelated aspects of electric power system operation, both of which face the challenge of coordinating efforts to enhance reliability and economic performance. This challenge…

Unit commitment (UC) is a fundamental problem in the day-ahead electricity market, and it is critical to solve UC problems efficiently. Mathematical optimization techniques like dynamic programming, Lagrangian relaxation, and mixed-integer…

This paper considers a recoverable robust single-machine scheduling problem under polyhedral uncertainty with the objective of minimising the total flow time. In this setting, a decision-maker must determine a first-stage schedule subject…

Optimization problems in process engineering, including design and operation, can often pose challenges to many solvers: multi-modal, non-smooth, and discontinuous models often with large computational requirements. In such cases, the…

Modern discrete manufacturing requires real-time energy and production co-scheduling to reduce business costs. In discrete manufacturing, production lines and equipment are complex and numerous, which introduces significant uncertainty…

This work addresses the Assembly Line Rebalancing Problem in manual assembly systems where multiple workers operate in parallel within the same station - an industrially relevant scenario that remains insufficiently explored in the…

We consider joint energy storage management and load scheduling at a residential site with integrated renewable generation. Assuming unknown arbitrary dynamics of renewable source, loads, and electricity price, we aim at optimizing the load…

Modular design maximizes utility by using standardized components in large-scale systems. From a manufacturing perspective, it supports green technology by reducing material waste and improving reusability. Industrially, it offers economic…

Space mission planning and spacecraft design are tightly coupled and need to be considered together for optimal performance; however, this integrated optimization problem results in a large-scale Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP)…

Empirical experiences have shown that simultaneous (rather than conventional sequential) plant and controller design procedure leads to an improvement in performance and saving of plant resources. Such a simultaneous synthesis procedure is…

The long-term average performance of the MISO downlink channel, with a large number of users compared to transmit antennas of the BS, depends on the interference management which necessitates the joint design problem of scheduling and…

In this paper, we study joint batching and (task) scheduling to maximise the throughput (i.e., the number of completed tasks) under the practical assumptions of heterogeneous task arrivals and deadlines. The design aims to optimise the…

In this study, we introduce an optimization framework aimed at enhancing the efficiency of motion priority design in scenarios involving automated and teleoperated robots within an industrial recovery context. The escalating utilization of…

The optimization of front-end crude oil scheduling is a critical determinant of refinery profitability and operational stability. However, the coupling of discrete logistics events (e.g., vessel berthing) with continuous material flows…
