This paper considers the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with two types of sequence-dependent setup times, one depending on order jobs and other both machines where are allocated. Three constructive heuristic algorithms based NEH algorithm developed object minimizing total energy consumption cost. The first algorithm, called EPRA, obtains using cost processing time. second ESRA, third ESPRA...

In this paper we adopt the common cycle approach to economic lot scheduling problem and minimize the maximum aggregate inventory. We allow the occurrence of the idle times between any two consecutive products and consider limited capital for investment in inventory. We assume the setup times are negligible. To achieve the optimal investment in inventory we first find the idle times which minimi...

 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. ...

in this paper, a genetic algorithm is presented for an identical parallel-machine scheduling problem with family setup time that minimizes the total weighted flow time ( ). no set-up is necessary between jobs belonging to the same family. a set-up must be scheduled when switching from the processing of family i jobs to those of another family j, i  j, the duration of this set-up being the sequ...
