The scheduling problem we consider is often faced by manufacturers who make time-sensitive products such as fashion apparel and toys, which typically have large product types and sell only during specific seasons. Consider the production and distribution scheduling decisions such a manufacturer needs to make. The customers (e.g. distributors or retailers) often set due dates on the orders they ...

frost occurrence during plant growth created special conditions to evaluate the effects of planting date on dry matter content and agronomical characteristics of potato cultivars influenced by natural frost in field conditions. a split-plot experiment with three replications was carried out to compare three planting dates, as main plot, from 1 to 21 november with 10 day intervals and four culti...

This paper reviews a set of ten existing metaheuristic solution procedures for the resource-constrained multi-project scheduling problem. Algorithmic implementations are constructed based on description original in literature. Equivalence is verified test instances objective and parameters through comparison with reported results. An extensive benchmark analysis performed novel, publicly availa...

A direct solution is proposed for problems of drawing up the optimal schedule jobs in a project based on using models and methods tropical optimization. The development an plan are reduced to optimization, which consist minimizing objective function under given strict constraints start finish time jobs. As optimality criteria maximum deviation from due dates taken, needs be minimized. Strict fo...

Capacity coordination, as the tactical level of hierarchical production planning in hybrid MTS/MTO systems, includes numerous important decisions. In this paper, two of these decisions i.e. finding the best strategy for the acceptance/rejection of incoming orders and determining orders’ due dates – are investigated. Also a simulation model is proposed to evaluate the efficiency of the presented...
