Flexible flow shop scheduling problem (FFS) with unrelated parallel machines contains sequencing in flow shop where, at any stage, there exists one or more processors. The objective consists of minimizing the maximum completion time. Because of NP-completeness of FFS problem, it is necessary to use heuristics method to address problems of moderate to large scale problem. Therefore, for assessme...

this article addresses a multi-stage flowshop scheduling problem with equal number of unrelated parallel machines. the objective is to minimize the makespan for a given set of jobs in the system. this problem class is np-hard in the strong sense, so a hybrid heuristic method for sequencing and then allocating operations of jobs to machines is developed. a number of test problems are randomly ge...

This paper presents a novel, multi-objective model of a parallel machines scheduling problem that minimizes the number of tardy jobs and total completion time of all jobs. In this model, machines are considered as unrelated parallel units with different speeds. In addition, there is some precedence, relating the jobs with non-identical due dates and their ready times. Sequence-dependent setup t...

this study considers scheduling in hybrid flow shop environment with unrelated parallel machines for minimizing mean of job's tardiness and mean of job's completion times. this problem does not study in the literature, so far. flexible flow shop environment is applicable in various industries such as wire and spring manufacturing, electronic industries and production lines. after mode...

We study methods for the exact solution of unrelated parallel machine problem with makespan minimization, generally denoted as R||C max . Our original application arises from automotive assembly process where tasks needs to be distributed among several robots. This involves solutions instances, which proved hard a MILP solver since objective induces weak LP relaxation bounds. To improve these b...
