Makespan minimization for scheduling unrelated parallel machines: a recovering beam search approach
Article Abstract:
The issue of scheduling jobs on parallel machines to reduce the makespan, which is total completion time, is considered. Recovering Beam Search algorithm is used to solve the problem and the derived computational results are presented.

A branch and bound algorithm for the two-stage assembly scheduling problem
Article Abstract:
A branch and bound algorithm was developed to solve the problem of scheduling a two-stage assembly of limiting the makespan. The algorithm also aims to schedule the jobs on the machines to allow maximum completion time to be limited. It was established that numerous dominance theorems have been developed and integrated into the branh and bound algorithm.
