SCHEDULING OPEN SHOPS TO MINIMIZE TOTAL WEIGHTED TARDINESS
Journal of The Chinese Institute of Industrial Engineers(2010)
Abstract
ABSTRACT It is well known that most of the open shop scheduling problems are NP-hard. Currently, the open shop scheduling research has been focusing on minimizing makespan. In this study, we shall examine the total weighted tardiness open shop scheduling problem, which is also NP-hard. We present a heuristic solution method, based on iterative search strategy, for solving large-scaled problems. Experimental results indicate that the proposed heuristic method significantly outperforms other methods in literature. Also, we present an exact solution method, based on branch-and-bound, for solving small-scaled problems.
