New Instances for the Single Machine Total Weighted Tardiness Problem
Previous research in the single machine total weighted tardiness problem (SMTWTP) has led to the proposition of effective local search strategies. At least existing benchmark instances from the literature do not pose a challenge for state-of-the-art algorithms. This paper describes the proposition of two classes of novel instances for the single machine total weighted tardiness problem. In resp...
متن کاملA GPI dynasearch neighborhood for the total weighted tardiness problem
art exact algorithms suffer from relatively poor performances. On the other hand the problem has been successfully tackled by local search heuristic algorithms where the neighborhood of a solution is usually computed by applying swap (a.k.a. pairwise interchange) operators to the working sequence. Dynasearch is a neighborhood search technique introduced by Congram et al. [1] whose main feature ...
متن کاملA Novel B and B Algorithm for a Unrelated Parallel Machine Scheduling Problem to Minimize the Total Weighted Tardiness
This paper presents a scheduling problem with unrelated parallel machines and sequencedependent setup times that minimizes the total weighted tardiness. A new branch-and-bound (B and B) algorithm is designed incorporating the lower and upper bounding schemes and several dominance properties. The lower and upper bounds are derived through an assignment problem and the composite dispatching rule ...
متن کاملAnt Colony Optimization for the Total Weighted Tardiness Problem
In this article we present an application of the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) metaheuristic to the single machine total weighted tardiness problem. First, we briefly discuss the constructive phase of ACO in which a colony of artificial ants generates a set of feasible solutions. Then, we introduce some simple but very effective local search. Last, we combine the constructive phase with local s...
متن کاملA New Ant Colony Optimization Approach for the Single Machine Total Weighted Tardiness Scheduling Problem
In this paper the NP-hard single machine total weighted tardiness scheduling problem in presence of sequence-dependent setup times is faced with a new Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) approach. The proposed ACO algorithm is based on a new global pheromone update mechanism, which makes the pheromone trails asymptotically range between two bounds arbitrarily fixed and the ACO learning mechanism ind...
