چکیده

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.

Lot Streaming in No-wait Multi Product Flowshop Considering Sequence Dependent Setup Times and Position Based Learning Factors

This paper considers a no-wait multi product flowshop scheduling problem with sequence dependent setup times. Lot streaming divide the lots of products into portions called sublots in order to reduce the lead times and work-in-process, and increase the machine utilization rates. The objective is to minimize the makespan. To clarify the system, mathematical model of the problem is presented. Sin...

Heuristics for two-machine flowshop scheduling with setup times and an availability constraint

This paper studies the two-machine flowshop scheduling problem with anticipatory setup times and an availability constraint imposed on only one of the machines where interrupted jobs can resume their operations. We present two heuristics and show that their worst-case error bounds are no larger than 2/3.

A Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Sequence-Dependent Setup Times Considering Position-Based Learning Effects and Availability Constraints

 Sequence dependent set-up times scheduling problems (SDSTs), availability constraint and transportation times are interesting and important issues in production management, which are often addressed separately. In this paper, the SDSTs job shop scheduling problem with position-based learning effects, job-dependent transportation times and multiple preventive maintenance activities is studied. ...

A Multi-objective Immune System for a New Bi-objective Permutation Flowshop Problem with Sequence-dependent Setup Times

 We present a new mathematical model for a permutation flowshop scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times considering minimization of two objectives, namely makespan and weighted mean total earliness/tardiness. Only small-sized problems with up to 20 jobs can be solved by the proposed integer programming approach. Thus, an effective multi-objective immune system (MOIS) is ...

Minimizing the maximum tardiness and makespan criteria in a job shop scheduling problem with sequence dependent setup times

The job shop scheduling problem (JSP) is one of the most difficult problems in traditional scheduling because any job consists of a set operations and also any operation processes by a machine. Whereas the operation is placed in the machine, it is essential to be considering setup times that the times strongly depend on the various sequencing of jobs on the machines. This research is developed ...
