On the Job-Shop Scheduling Problem [PDF]
This is a proposal for the application of discrete linear programming to the typical job-shop scheduling problem—one that involves both sequencing restrictions and also noninterference constraints for individual pieces of equipment. Thus far, no attempt has been made to establish the computational feasibility of the approach in the case of large-scale

A linear programming-based method for job shop scheduling [PDF]
We present a decomposition heuristic for a large class of job shop scheduling problems. This heuristic utilizes information from the linear programming formulation of the associated optimal timing problem to solve subproblems, can be used for any ...

Application of an evolutionary algorithm-based ensemble model to job-shop scheduling [PDF]
In this paper, a novel evolutionary algorithm is applied to tackle job-shop scheduling tasks in manufacturing environments. Specifically, a modified micro genetic algorithm (MmGA) is used as the building block to formulate an ensemble model to undertake ...

Job Shop Scheduling by Local Search [PDF]
We survey solution methods for the job shop scheduling problem with an emphasis on local search. Both deterministic and randomized local search methods as well as the proposed neighborhoods are discussed. We compare the computational performance of the various methods in terms of their effectiveness and efficiency on a standard set of problem ...

A MILP model for an extended version of the Flexible Job Shop Problem [PDF]
A MILP model for an extended version of the Flexible Job Shop Scheduling problem is proposed. The extension allows the precedences between operations of a job to be given by an arbitrary directed acyclic graph rather than a linear order.
