چکیده

We consider the uniform parallel machine scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing maximum lateness. We show that an extension of the EDD rule to a uniform parallel machine setting yields a maximum lateness value which does not exceed the optimal value by more than pmax, where pmax is the maximum job processing time. c © 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

A simulated annealing approach to minimize the maximum lateness on uniform parallel machines

This paper considers the uniform parallel machine scheduling problem which is to minimize the maximum lateness. This problem is equivalent to the uniform parallel machine scheduling problem, which is to minimize the maximal completion time of n jobs whose release times are zero, processing times depend on the speed of the machine to which they are assigned, and their delivery times are differen...

ÐWe consider the problem of scheduling n identical jobs with unequal ready times on m parallel uniform machines to minimize the maximum lateness. This paper develops a branch-and-bound procedure that optimally solves the problem and introduces six simple single-pass heuristic procedures that approximate the optimal solution. The branch-and-bound procedure uses the heuristics to establish an ini...

Solving the Problem of Scheduling Unrelated Parallel Machines with Limited Access to Jobs

Nowadays, by successful application of on time production concept in other concepts like production management and storage, the need to complete the processing of jobs in their delivery time is considered a key issue in industrial environments. Unrelated parallel machines scheduling is a general mood of classic problems of parallel machines. In some of the applications of unrelated parallel mac...

Stochastic Scheduling to Minimize Expected Lateness in Multiple Identical Machines

There are many real world problems in which parameters like the arrival time of new jobs, failure of resources, and completion time of jobs change continuously. This paper tackles the problem of scheduling jobs with random due dates on multiple identical machines in a stochastic environment. First to assign jobs to different machine centers LPT scheduling methods have been used, after that the ...
