Scheduling has an immense effect on various areas of human lives, be it though its
application in manufacturing and production industry, transportation, workforce allocation, or …

The first comprehensive survey paper on scheduling problems with separate setup times or
costs was conducted by [Allahverdi, A., Gupta, JND, Aldowaisan, T., 1999. A review of …

In this work a genetic algorithm is presented for the unrelated parallel machine scheduling
problem in which machine and job sequence dependent setup times are considered. The …

The problem addressed in this paper is the non-preemptive unrelated parallel machine
scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the makespan. Machine-dependent and …

This paper addresses the non-preemptive unrelated parallel machine scheduling problem
with machine-dependent and sequence-dependent setup times. All jobs are available at …

A methodology for minimizing the weighted tardiness of jobs in unrelated parallel machining
scheduling with sequence-dependent setups is presented in this paper. To comply with …

This paper presents a hybrid method of Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm and Sine
Cosine Algorithm (SCA) to solve unrelated parallel machine scheduling problems …

This paper addresses the problem of minimizing the makespan on unrelated parallel
machines with sequence-dependent setup times. The term unrelated machines is used in …

In a previous paper (Arnaout et al in J Intell Manuf 21: 693–701, 2010), an Ant Colony
optimization (ACO I) algorithm was introduced for minimizing the schedule's makespan on …

This study considers the problem of scheduling jobs on unrelated parallel machines with
machine-dependent and job sequence-dependent setup times. In this study, a restricted …
