We study the single machine scheduling problem with the objective to minimize the total weight of late jobs. It is assumed that the processing times of jobs are not exactly known at the time when a complete schedule must be dispatched.…
We consider the class of single machine scheduling problems with the objective to minimize the weighted number of late jobs, under the assumption that completion due-dates are not known precisely at the time when decision-maker must provide…
This paper addresses the scheduling problem of minimizing the total weighted tardiness on a single machine with step-deteriorating jobs. With the assumption of deterioration, the job processing times are modeled by step functions of job…
In this paper, we focus on the solution of a hard single machine scheduling problem by new heuristic algorithms embedding techniques from machine learning field and scheduling theory. These heuristics transform an instance of the hard…
In this paper, the single machine scheduling problem with deteriorating jobs and learning effects are considered, which is shown in the previous research that the SDR method no longer provides an optimal solution for the problem. In order…
In this paper, we investigate the use of deep learning for solving a classical NP-Hard single machine scheduling problem where the criterion is to minimize the total tardiness. Instead of designing an end-to-end machine learning model, we…
This work proposes a unified heuristic algorithm for a large class of earliness-tardiness (E-T) scheduling problems. We consider single/parallel machine E-T problems that may or may not consider some additional features such as idle time,…
In this paper we study the classical single machine scheduling problem where the objective is to minimize the total weight of tardy jobs. Our analysis focuses on the case where one or more of three natural parameters is either constant or…
This paper revisits the well known single machine scheduling problem to minimize total weighted completion times. The twist is that job sizes are stochastic from unknown distributions, and the scheduler has access to only a single sample…
In this work, we study the single machine scheduling problem with uncertain release times and processing times of jobs. We adopt a robust scheduling approach, in which the measure of robustness to be minimized for a given sequence of jobs…
The considered problem is how to optimally allocate a set of jobs to technicians of different skills such that the number of technicians of each skill does not exceed the number of persons with that skill designation. The key motivation is…
Flowshop problems play a prominent role in operations research, and have considerable practical significance. The single-machine flowshop problem is of particular theoretical interest. Until now the problem of minimizing late jobs or job…
The problem of scheduling non-simultaneously released jobs with due dates on a single machine with the objective to minimize the maximum job lateness is known to be strongly NP-hard. Here we consider an extended model in which the…
This paper resolves a long-standing open question in bicriteria scheduling regarding the complexity of a single machine scheduling problem which combines the number of tardy jobs and the maximal tardiness criteria. We use the lexicographic…
This paper explores fast, polynomial time heuristic approximate solutions to the NP-hard problem of scheduling jobs on N identical machines. The jobs are independent and are allowed to be stopped and restarted on another machine at a later…
We introduce a natural but seemingly yet unstudied generalization of the problem of scheduling jobs on a single machine so as to minimize the number of tardy jobs. Our generalization lies in simultaneously considering several instances of…
Deep learning has been effectively applied to many discrete optimization problems. However, learning-based scheduling on unrelated parallel machines remains particularly difficult to design. Not only do the numbers of jobs and machines…
This paper concerns the single machine total weighted tardiness scheduling with sequence-dependent setup times, usually referred as $1|s_{ij}|\sum w_jT_j$. In this $\mathcal{NP}$-hard problem, each job has an associated processing time, due…
In this paper, we investigate the use of the deep learning method for solving a well-known NP-hard single machine scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the total tardiness. We propose a deep neural network that acts as a…
Scheduling problems are a fundamental class of combinatorial optimization problems that underpin operational efficiency in manufacturing, logistics, and service systems. While operations research has traditionally developed solver-centric…
