In this paper, we consider single-machine group scheduling with nonperiodical maintenance and deteriorating effects. Nonperiodical maintenance, which has unfixed maintaining interval or the number of jobs in each is unfixed, results a variable groups. Deteriorating effects lead to longer processing times deterioration index depends on job grouping. This problem significance different production...

The complexity of power systems is increasing as new generating units are added to in order supply the growing economies. This has resulted further research into generator maintenance scheduling (GMS) problem which seeks ensure optimal preventive that effective and reliable. focused on developing a schedule using tri-objective model. GMS model solved two solution methodologies. first an exact m...

Scheduling has become an attractive area for artificial intelligence researchers. On other hand, in today's real-world manufacturing systems, the importance of an efficient maintenance schedule program cannot be ignored because it plays an important role in the success of manufacturing facilities. A maintenance program may be considered as the heath care of manufacturing machines and equipments...

Standard scheduling theory assumes that all machines are continuously available throughout the planning horizon. In many manufacturing and service management situations however, machines need to be maintained periodically to prevent malfunctions. During the maintenance period, a machine is not available for processing jobs. Hence, a more realistic scheduling model should take into account machi...

It is so obvious that every site that went to critical effort of construction has to be maintained. The site can be of any place that explains earlier regardless of domain. This paper deals with a system that diagnoses maintenance problem in a site as well as, registers problems that are given by the user to it. Further, it deals with scheduling those problems for the next day maintenance sched...

This paper discusses Performance Based Maintenance Scheduling as an enabler for Optimised Building Operation in terms of cost, energy usage, and user comfort, and the role of collaborative networks in achieving these optimal conditions. We finally explain what categories of constraints need to be considered to organize performance based maintenance scheduling in a holistic and integrated manner

The job scheduling problem (JSP) belongs to the well-known combinatorial optimization domain. After scheduling, if a machine maintenance issue affects the scheduled processing of jobs, the delivery of jobs must be delayed. In this paper, we have first proposed a Hybrid Evolutionary Algorithm (HyEA) for solving JSPs. We have then analysed the effect of machine maintenance, whether preventive or ...

Competitiveness and rapid expansion of flexible manufacturing system (FMS), as one of the industrial alternatives, has attracted the attention of many practitioners and academicians. Globalization has further encouraged FMS development into distributed, self-reliant units of production center. Flexible manufacturing system in distributed system (FMSDS) considers multi-factory environments, wher...

We study a discrete problem of scheduling activities of several types under the constraint that at most a single activity can be scheduled to any one period. Applications of such a model are the scheduling of maintenance service to machines and multi-item replenishment of stock. In this paper we assume that the cost associated with any given type of activity increases linearly with the number o...
