Scheduling of a Two-machine Flowshop with Processing Time Linearly Dependent on Job Waiting-time Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • This paper deals with the problem of finding the minimum finish-time schedule in a two-machine flow-shop, where the processing times of jobs are linearly dependent on the job waiting-times. The problem is shown to be NP-hard. A heuristic algorithm is presented, and the worst-case bounds are derived for the different variations of the algorithm. 1989 Operational Research Society Ltd.
