A novel class of scheduling policies for the stochastic resource-constrained project scheduling problem. [PDF]

open access: yes
We study the resource-constrained project scheduling problem with stochastic activity durations. We introduce a new class of scheduling policies for this problem, which make a number of a-priori sequencing decisions in a pre-processing phase, while the ...

Global bacteria optimization meta-heuristic: Performance analysis and application to shop scheduling problems

open access: yes, 2011
16 páginasA large number of real-life optimization problems in economics and business are complex and difficult to solve. Hence, using approximate algorithms is a very good alternative to solve this class of problems.

Trust-driven job scheduling heuristics for computing grid

open access: yesTongxin xuebao, 2006
Currently existing grid scheduling algorithms largely ignore the impact of trust mechanism,which made their applicability in a realistic environment rather doubtful.Based on the grid trust model and trust utilization functions,a trust-driven grid job ...

Lot streaming and batch scheduling: splitting and grouping jobs to improve production efficiency

open access: yes, 2001
This thesis deals with issues arising in manufacturing, in particular related to production efficiency. Lot streaming refers to the process of splitting jobs to move production through several stages as quickly as possible, whereas batch scheduling ...

Static vs. Dynamic List-Scheduling Performance Comparison

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2003
The problem of efficient task scheduling is one of the most important and most difficult issues in homogeneous computing environments. Finding an optimal solution for a scheduling problem is NP-complete.

Resource-constrained project scheduling for timely project completion with stochastic activity durations. [PDF]

open access: yes
We investigate resource-constrained project scheduling with stochastic activity durations. Various objective functions related to timely project completion are examined, as well as the correlation between these objectives. We develop a GRASP-heuristic to

A branch-and-bound algorithm for stable scheduling in single-machine production systems. [PDF]

open access: yes
Robust scheduling aims at the construction of a schedule that is protected against uncertain events. A stable schedule is a robust schedule that will change little when variations in the input parameters arise.

Developing a multi-methodological approach to hospital operating theatre scheduling

open access: yes, 2014
Operating theatres and surgeons are among the most expensive resources in any hospital, so it is vital that they are used efficiently. Due to the complexity of the challenges involved in theatre scheduling we split the problem into levels and address the
