Analytic Hierarchy Process and Multilayer Network-Based Method for Assembly Line Balancing
Assembly line balancing improves the efficiency of production systems by the optimal assignment of tasks to operators. The optimisation of this assignment requires models that provide information about the activity times, constraints and costs of the ...

The AllDifferent Constraint with Precedences [PDF]
We propose AllDiffPrecedence, a new global constraint that combines together an AllDifferent constraint with precedence constraints that strictly order given pairs of variables. We identify a number of applications for this global constraint including instruction scheduling and symmetry breaking. We give an efficient propagation algorithm that enforces

The bounded core for games with precedence constraints [PDF]
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]
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.

We study a difficult problem of how to schedule complex workflows with precedence constraints under a limited budget in the cloud environment. We first formulate the scheduling problem as an integer programming problem, which can be optimized and used as

On-Line Scheduling with Precedence Constraints
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 ...

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.
