The basic form of the problem of scheduling jobs with multiple (M) operations, over M machines, such that all of the first operations must be done on the first machine, all of the second operations on the second, etc., and a single job cannot be performed in parallel, is known as the flow-shop scheduling problem.
In the literature, problems of optimal job scheduling are often called machine scheduling, processor scheduling, multiprocessor scheduling, or just scheduling. There are many different problems of optimal job scheduling, different in the nature of jobs, the nature of machines, the restrictions on the schedule, and the objective function.
Order the jobs by descending order of their processing-time, such that the job with the longest processing time is first. Schedule each job in this sequence into a machine in which the current load (= total processing-time of scheduled jobs) is smallest. Step 2 of the algorithm is essentially the list-scheduling (LS) algorithm. The difference ...
Flow Shop Ordonnancement. Flow-shop scheduling is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research.It is a variant of optimal job scheduling.In a general job-scheduling problem, we are given n jobs J 1, J 2, ..., J n of varying processing times, which need to be scheduled on m machines with varying processing power, while trying to minimize the makespan – the total length ...
The open-shop scheduling problem can be solved in polynomial time for instances that have only two workstations or only two jobs. It may also be solved in polynomial time when all nonzero processing times are equal: in this case the problem becomes equivalent to edge coloring a bipartite graph that has the jobs and workstations as its vertices, and that has an edge for every job-workstation ...
Sequence-dependent setup time is a situation where the setup time required for a job depends on the job that came before it, rather than being constant for all jobs (independent job setup time). Serafini [ 10 ] assumes unbounded splittings and preemptions and gives polynomial-time algorithms that minimize the maximum tardiness and the maximum ...
In the guillotine cutting problem, both the items and the "bins" are two-dimensional rectangles rather than one-dimensional numbers, and the items have to be cut from the bin using end-to-end cuts. In the selfish bin packing problem, each item is a player who wants to minimize its cost. [53]
Single-machine scheduling or single-resource scheduling is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research.We are given n jobs J 1, J 2, ..., J n of varying processing times, which need to be scheduled on a single machine, in a way that optimizes a certain objective, such as the throughput.
