چکیده

We consider the High-Multiplicity Cyclic Job Shop Scheduling Problem, in which we are given a set of identical jobs and must find a schedule that repeats itself with some cycle time τ . In each cycle, operations are processed just as in the previous cycle, but on jobs indexed one greater in the ordering of jobs. There are two objectives of interest: the cycle time τ and the flow time F from the start to the finish of each job. We give several approximation algorithms after showing that a very restricted case is APX-hard.

Generalized Cyclic Open Shop Scheduling and a Hybrid Algorithm

In this paper, we first introduce a generalized version of open shop scheduling (OSS), called generalized cyclic open shop scheduling (GCOSS) and then develop a hybrid method of metaheuristic to solve this problem. Open shop scheduling is concerned with processing n jobs on m machines, where each job has exactly m operations and operation i of each job has to be processed on machine i . However...

An Improved Tabu Search Algorithm for Job Shop Scheduling Problem Trough Hybrid Solution Representations

Job shop scheduling problem (JSP) is an attractive field for researchers and production managers since it is a famous problem in many industries and a complex problem for researchers. Due to NP-hardness property of this problem, many meta-heuristics are developed to solve it. Solution representation (solution seed) is an important element for any meta-heuristic algorithm. Therefore, many resear...

From Fluid Relaxations to Practical Algorithms for High-Multiplicity Job-Shop Scheduling: The Holding Cost Objective

We design an algorithm for the high-multiplicity job-shop scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the total holding cost by appropriately rounding an optimal solution to a fluid relaxation in which we replace discrete jobs with the flow of a continuous fluid. The algorithm solves the fluid relaxation optimally and then aims to keep the schedule in the discrete network close to the s...

An algorithm for multi-objective job shop scheduling problem

Scheduling for job shop is very important in both fields of production management and combinatorial op-timization. However, it is quite difficult to achieve an optimal solution to this problem with traditional opti-mization approaches owing to the high computational complexity. The combination of several optimization criteria induces additional complexity and new problems. In this paper, we pro...

Parallel Simulated Annealing Algorithm for Cyclic Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem

This paper deals with scheduling of tasks in cyclic flexible job shop scheduling problem (CFJSSP). We have proposed a new method of computing cyclic time for CFJSSP. This method is based on the known properties of the job shop problem as well as new properties of cyclic scheduling. We have developed two versions of proposed method: sequential and parallel. The parallel version is dedicated to t...
