The energy scheduling problem: Industrial case-study and constraint propagation techniques [PDF]
This paper deals with production scheduling involving energy constraints, typically electrical energy. We start by an industrial case-study for which we propose a two-step integer/constraint programming method.

Reactive scheduling using a multi-agent model: the SCEP framework [PDF]
Multi-agent systems have been successfully applied to the scheduling problem for some time. However, their use often leads to poorly unsatisfactory disappointing results. A new multi-agent model, called supervisor, customers, environment, producers (SCEP)

Integration of Production Planning and Scheduling Based on RTN Representation under Uncertainties
Production planning and scheduling are important bases for production decisions. Concerning the traditional modeling of production planning and scheduling based on Resource-Task Network (RTN) representation, uncertain factors such as utilities are rarely
