Auction-based approach to the job-shop problem with parallel batch processing and a machine availability constraint

Customer Order Scheduling with Job-Based Processing and Lot Streaming In A Two-Machine Flow Shop

This paper considers a customer order scheduling (COS) problem in which each customer requests a variety of products processed in a two-machine flow shop. A sequence-independent attached setup for each machine is needed before processing each product lot. We assume that customer orders are satisfied by the job-based processing approach in which the same products from different customer orders f...

Algorithm for Solving Job Shop Scheduling Problem Based on machine availability constraint

Typically, general job shop scheduling problems assume that working times of machines are equal, for instance eight hours a day. However, in real factories, these working times are different because the machines may have different processing speeds, or they may require maintenance. That is, one machine may need to be operated only half day whereas other machines may have to be operated for the ...

A Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Controllable Processing Times to Optimize Total Cost of Delay and Processing

In this paper, the flexible job shop scheduling problem with machine flexibility and controllable process times is studied. The main idea is that the processing times of operations may be controlled by consumptions of additional resources. The purpose of this paper to find the best trade-off between processing cost and delay cost in order to minimize the total costs. The proposed model, flexibl...

A constraint programming approach for a batch processing problem with non-identical job sizes

A Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Sequence-Dependent Setup Times Considering Position-Based Learning Effects and Availability Constraints

 Sequence dependent set-up times scheduling problems (SDSTs), availability constraint and transportation times are interesting and important issues in production management, which are often addressed separately. In this paper, the SDSTs job shop scheduling problem with position-based learning effects, job-dependent transportation times and multiple preventive maintenance activities is studied. ...
