In this work we present a review and comparative evaluation of heuristics and
metaheuristics for the well-known permutation flowshop problem with the makespan …

This paper considers the gap between scheduling theory and scheduling practice. The
development and the main results of classical scheduling theory are reviewed and …

This book is an outgrowth of an earlier text that appeared in 1999 under the title “Operations
Scheduling with Applications in Manufacturing and Services”, coauthored with **uli Chao …

In this paper, a particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) is presented to solve the
permutation flowshop sequencing problem (PFSP) with the objectives of minimizing …

This paper considers minimizing the makespan in the 3-machine assembly-type flowshop
scheduling problem. After problem formulation, we present a proof to show that the general …

In this paper, a novel discrete differential evolution (DDE) algorithm is presented to solve the
permutation flowhop scheduling problem with the makespan criterion. The DDE algorithm is …

Makespan minimization in permutation flow-shop scheduling is an operations research topic
that has been intensively addressed during the last 40 years. Since the problem is known to …

This paper examines scheduling in flexible flow lines with sequence-dependent setup times
to minimize makespan. This type of manufacturing environment is found in industries such …

In this paper, we study the permutation flowshop scheduling problem with the criterion of
minimising the total flow time. We propose a new constructive heuristic procedure to solve …
