Two-machine Flowshop Scheduling Problem to Minimize Makespan or Total Completion Time with Random and Bounded Setup Times
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper addresses the two-machine flowshop scheduling problemwith separate setup times to minimize makespan or total completion time (TCT). Setup times are relaxed to be random variables rather than deterministic as commonly used in the OR literature. Moreover, distribution-free setup times are used where only the lower and upper bounds are given. Global and local dominance relations are developed for the considered flowshops and an illustrative numerical example is given.

Flowshop Scheduling with Random and Bounded Setup Times
The two-machine permutation flowshop scheduling problem to minimize makespan or total completion time criterion is addressed where setup times are considered to be separate from processing times. Setup times are relaxed to be random variables as opposed to the common assumption in the literature that setup times are exactly known (deterministic) in advance. The probability distributions of setu...
متن کاملMeta heuristic for Minimizing Makespan in a Flow-line Manufacturing Cell with Sequence Dependent Family Setup Times
This paper presents a new mathematical model for the problem of scheduling part families and jobs within each part family in a flow line manufacturing cell where the setup times for each family are sequence dependent and it is desired to minimize the maximum completion time of the last job on the last machine (makespan) while processing parts (jobs) in each family together. Gaining an optimal s...
متن کاملA three-stage assembly flow shop scheduling problem with blocking and sequence-dependent set up times
This paper considers a three-stage assembly flowshop scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup < /div> times at the first stage and blocking times between each stage in such a way that the weighted mean completion time and makespan are minimized. Obtaining an optimal solution for this type of complex, large-sized problem in reasonable computational time using traditiona...
متن کاملAn approximation scheme for two-machine flowshop scheduling with setup times and an availability constraint
This paper studies the two-machine permutation flowshop scheduling problem with anticipatory setup times and an availability constraint imposed only on the first machine. The objective is to minimize the makespan. Under the assumption that interrupted jobs can resume their operations, we present a polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for this problem.
متن کاملA fuzzy mixed-integer goal programming model for a parallel machine scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times and release dates
This paper presents a new mixed-integer goal programming (MIGP) model for a parallel machine scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times and release dates. Two objectives are considered in the model to minimize the total weighted flow time and the total weighted tardiness simultaneously. Due to the com-plexity of the above model and uncertainty involved in real-world scheduling probl...
