This paper explores the problems of unrelated parallel-machine scheduling with aging effects and deteriorating maintenance activities. The jobs are non-resumable. Each machine has at most one maintenance activity which is allowed throughout the planning horizon. Assume that once the maintenance activity is completed, the functions of machine and the properties of jobs e.g. the temperature (hard...

This paper considers a different version of the parallel machines scheduling problem in which the parallel jobs simultaneously requirea pre-specifiedjob-dependent number of machines when being processed.This relaxation departs from one of the classic scheduling assumptions. While the analytical conditions can be easily statedfor some simple models, a graph model approach is required when confli...

| Runtime Incremental Parallel Scheduling (RIPS) is an alternative strategy to the commonly used dynamic scheduling. In this scheduling strategy, the system scheduling activity alternates with the underlying computation work. RIPS utilizes the advanced parallel scheduling technique to produce a low-overhead, high-quality load balancing, as well as adapting to irregular applications. This paper ...

In this article, a specific production scheduling problem (PSP), the Parallel Machine Scheduling Problem (PMSP) with Job and Sequence Setup Times, Due Dates Maintenance Times is presented. article after introduction literature review mathematical model of Machines After that Monte Carlo Tree Search Simulated Annealing are detailed. Our representation technique its evaluation also introduced. th...

The paper addresses the problem of maximizing the percentage of on-time jobs in a parallel machine environment with sequence dependent deterioration. The deterioration of each machine (and therefore of the job processing times) is a function of the sequence of jobs that have been processed by the machine. Two machine loading strategies are combined with a set of list scheduling algorithms to so...
