Nash equilibria for the multi-agent project scheduling problem with controllable processing times
This paper considers a project scheduling environment in which the activities of the project network are partitioned among a set of agents. Activity durations are controllable, i.e., every agent is allowed to shorten the duration of its activities, incurring a crashing cost. If the project makespan is reduced with respect to its normal value, a reward is offered to the agents and each agent rec...
متن کاملBuilding a Multi-Objective Model for Multi-Product Multi-Period Production Planning with Controllable Processing Times: A Real Case Problem
Model building is a fragile and complex process especially in the context of real cases. Each real case problem has its own characteristics with new concepts and conditions. A correct model should have some essential characteristics such as: being compatible with real conditions, being of sufficient accuracy, being logically traceable and etc. This paper discusses how to build an efficient mode...
متن کاملScheduling with Controllable Processing Times
In today's industrial world, demand nature is changing where the customers are looking for a high variety of products. In order to meet varying customer demands, the firms should be flexible enough to produce parts in an efficient way. The flexible manufacturing systems have emerged with the progress in manufacturing technology. A flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is a computer-controlled pro...
متن کاملIntegrated Project Scheduling and Staff Assignment with Controllable Processing Times
This paper addresses a decision problem related to simultaneously scheduling the tasks in a project and assigning the staff to these tasks, taking into account that a task can be performed only by employees with certain skills, and that the length of each task depends on the number of employees assigned. This type of problems usually appears in service companies, where both tasks scheduling and...
متن کاملA 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...
