Periodic schedules for linear precedence constraints

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2009
We consider the computation of periodic cyclic schedules for linear precedence constraints graphs: a linear precedence constraint is defined between two tasks and induces an infinite set of usual precedence constraints between their executions such that the difference of iterations is a linear function. The objective function is the minimization of the

A Constraint Programming Approach to Ship Refit Project Scheduling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Ship refit projects require ongoing plan management to adapt to arising work and disruptions. Planners must sequence work activities in the best order possible to complete the project in the shortest time or within a defined period while minimizing ...

Reclaimer Scheduling in Dry Bulk Terminals

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
This paper studies a complex parallel scheduling problem with non-crossing constraint, sequence dependent setup times, eligibility restrictions, and precedence relationships motivated by reclaimer scheduling in dry bulk terminals.

A Constraint Programming approach to solve the clustering problem in open-pit mine planning [PDF]

open access: yesREM: International Engineering Journal
Since the open-pit precedence-constrained production scheduling problem is an NP-hard problem, solving it is always a challenging task, especially from a long-term perspective because a mineral deposit containing millions of blocks would require several ...

The bounded core for games with precedence constraints [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Operations Research, 2012
In this paper, the authors consider cooperative games in which there are restrictions on cooperation. These restrictions are modeled by a hierarchical structure on the set of players (cf. [\textit{U. Faigle} and \textit{W. Kern}, Int. J. Game Theory 21, No.

On Stochastic Scheduling with In-Tree Precedence Constraints [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Computing, 1987
The authors consider the problem of optimally scheduling a set of jobs obeying in-tree precedence constraints when a number of processors is available. It is assumed that the service times of different jobs are independent identically distributed random variables.

Automatic Precedence Constraint Generation for Assembly Sequence Planning using a Three-Dimensional Solid Model

open access: yesInternational Journal of Technology, 2019
The assembly sequence planning of a product can be generated through three phases: first, generating precedence constraints; second, searching for assembly sequence alternatives; and third, selecting the best assembly sequence.

On-Line Scheduling with Precedence Constraints

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2000
The on-line problem of scheduling jobs with precedence constraints on \(m\) machines, is considered. The authors concentrate in two models, the model of uniformly related machines and the model of restricted assignment. For the related machines model, it is shown a lower bound of \(\Omega(\sqrt{m})\) for the competitive ratio of deterministic and ...

Online List Access with Precedence Constraints

open access: yesCoRR, 2021
This paper considers a natural generalization of the online list access problem in the paid exchange model, where additionally there can be precedence constraints ("dependencies") among the nodes in the list. For example, this generalization is motivated by applications in the context of packet classification.
