In this paper we consider the use of fuzzy logic in the scheduling of periodic tasks in soft real-time multiprocessor systems. In real-time systems, tasks have to be performed correctly and timely. Finding minimal schedule in multiprocessor systems with real time constraints is shown to be NP hard. Most researches concerning real-time system scheduling assume scheduling constraint to be precise...

Project planning is part of project management, which is relates to the use of schedules such as Gantt charts to plan and subsequently report progress within the project environment. Initially, the project scope is defined and the appropriate methods for completing the project are determined. In this paper a new approach for the critical path analyzing a project network with random fuzzy activi...

this paper investigates the problem of just-in-time permutation flow shop scheduling with limited buffers and linear job deterioration in an uncertain environment. the fuzzy set theory is applied to describe this situation. a novel mixed-integer nonlinear program is presented to minimize the weighted sum of fuzzy earliness and tardiness penalties. due to the computational complexities, the prop...

appropriate scheduling and sequencing of tasks on machines is one of the basic and significant problems that a shop or a factory manager encounters; this is why in recent decades extensive studies have been done on scheduling issues. one type of scheduling problems is just-in-time (jit) scheduling and in this area, motivated by jit manufacturing, this study investigates a mathematical model for...

From a set of a partially ordered tasks, one goal of the project scheduling problem is to compute earliest starting dates, latest starting dates and floats of the different tasks, and to identify critical tasks. When durations of tasks are not precisely known, the problem is much trickier. Recently we provided polynomial algorithms to compute upper bound of activity floats in the interval-value...

This thesis presents new and improved scheduling algorithms for a number of scheduling problems. The first part of the thesis deals with two online-list scheduling problems, both with the objective to minimize the makespan. In these problems, the jobs arrive one by one and the decision maker has to irrevocably schedule the arriving job before the next job becomes known. In the second part, a ne...

In this study, we have done the scheduling of FMS using fuzzy logic approach. It has been applied by many researchers to various manufacturing problems. With the help of fuzzy logic, we can incorporate both numerical and linguistic variables. The advantage of fuzzy logic is that it has the ability to consider multiple criteria and can deal with uncertain or incomplete information. Scheduling of...

This letter proposes the fuzzy logic-based fast gain scheduling(FFGS) controller for regulation problem in nonlinear systems. It utilizes the fuzzy scheduling variable which reeects the derivative information on the original scheduling variable in order to achieve better performance than the existents.
