Minimum loss scheduling problems
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider two minimum loss scheduling problems. Let the arrival epochs and processing times of n consecutive jobs be known. The first problem deals with the case these jobs can be processed by m parallel nonidentical machines without waiting room, i.e., a pure loss system. In the second problem there is one machine with a finite waiting room, i.e., a single machine delay-loss system. For both problems we give an algorithm that minimizes the total number (c.q. weight) of lost jobs.

Concurrent Locomotive Assignment and Freight Train Scheduling
The locomotive assignment and the freight train scheduling are important problems in railway transportation. Freight cars are coupled to form a freight rake. The freight rake becomes a train when a locomotive is coupled to it. The locomotive assignment problem assigns locomotives to a set of freight rakes in a way that, with minimum locomotive deadheading time, rake coupling delay and locomotiv...
متن کاملResource-Constrained Project Scheduling: Computing Lower Bounds by Solving Minimum Cut Problems
We propose a novel approach to compute bounds on the objective function value of a wide class of resource-constrained project scheduling problems. The basis is a polynomial-time algorithm to solve the following scheduling problem: Given a set of activities with start-time dependent costs and temporal constraints in the form of time windows, find a feasible schedule of minimum total cost. Motiva...

This paper considers deterministic scheduling problems for systems having a nUmber of different resource types and an arbJtrary number of units of each resource. General results are obtained for preemptiveresume scheduling rules under the condition of zero preemption costs.

متن کاملTo appear, European Journal of Operational Research. Case Study on Statistically Estimating Minimum Makespan for Flow Line Scheduling Problems
Lower bounds are typically used to evaluate the performance of heuristics for solving combinatorial minimization problems. In the absence of tight analytical lower bounds, optimal objective-function values may be estimated statistically. In this paper, extreme value theory is used to construct confidence-interval estimates of the minimum makespan achievable when scheduling nonsimilar groups of ...

The recent survey paper “A Survey on Scheduling Problems with Setup Times and Costs” 1 , classifies batch scheduling problems into those with batching and nonbatching considerations, with sequence-independent and sequence-dependent setup times, and according to the machine environment and the objective function. The survey contains approximately 300 references, a clear indication of the importa...
