Single-machine scheduling with time windows and earliness/tardiness penalties
Article Abstract:
A static, deterministic single-machine scheduling problem with time windows (STW) and earliness/tardiness penalties has been examined. The problem was found to be NP-hard and then decomposed into subproblems of determining a good job sequence and optimally inserting idle time into a sequence. The apparent urgency, adjacent pairwise interchange and PSK-based heuristics were proposed for the solution of STW.

Two-machine shop scheduling with zero and unit processing times
Article Abstract:
Three algorithms were developed to address the two machine flow shop and open shop problems. The algorithms developed, which resolve the problems under consideration in O (n log n) time, particularly aim to lessen the weighted mean flow-time of the problems. Solution obtained for the open shop problem is based on the flow shop problem and the two parallel identical machine problem's algorithms.

On the complexity of two-machine flowshop problems with due date related objectives
Article Abstract:
An assessment of a flowshop environment was undertaken designed to solve its scheduling problems. The two-machine flowshop problems, which possess due date related criteria, become polynomially solvable upon introduction of restrictions on job processing times and due dates. On the other hand, the two-machine flowshop problems become NP-complete upon moderation of restrictions imposed.
