Scheduling involving setup times/costs plays an important role in today's modern
manufacturing and service environments for the delivery of reliable products on time. The …

Abstract Historically, Operations Research (OR) discipline has mainly been focusing on
economic concerns. Since the early 2000s, human considerations are gaining increasing …

The online-to-offline (O2O) community supermarket is currently a popular O2O business
model in China. Owing to the small lot-size, high frequency, time-sensitive, and dynamic …

The real life scheduling problems often have several conflicting objectives. The solutions of
these problems can provide deeper insights to the decision maker than those of single …

This paper introduces the serial batching scheduling problems with position-based learning
effect, where the actual job processing time is a function of its position. Two scheduling …

The existence of the learning effect in many manufacturing systems is undoubted; thus, it is
worthwhile that it be taken into consideration during production planning to increase …

This paper addresses parallel machine scheduling with learning effects. The objective is to
minimize the makespan. To satisfy reality, we consider the processing times as fuzzy …

In wafer fabrication, production quality is a key performance index and is subject to machine
condition deterioration. This paper studies a parallel-machine scheduling problem that can …

In this paper we consider the single machine scheduling problem with exponential time-
dependent learning effect and past-sequence-dependent (psd) setup times. By the …

We consider a parallel-machine scheduling problem with a learning effect and the
makespan objective. The impact of the learning effect on job processing times is modelled …
