Book Integer Programming and Related Areas

Download or read book Integer Programming and Related Areas written by Rabe v. Randow and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fields of integer programming and combinatorial optimization continue to be areas of great vitality, with an ever increasing number of publications and journals appearing. A classified bibliography thus continues to be necessary and useful today, even more so than it did when the project, of which this is the fifth volume, was started in 1970 in the Institut fur Okonometrie und Operations Research of the University of Bonn. The pioneering first volume was compiled by Claus Kastning during the years 1970 - 1975 and appeared in 1976 as Volume 128 of the series Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems published by the Springer Verlag. Work on the project was continued by Dirk Hausmann, Reinhardt Euler, and Rabe von Randow, and resulted in the publication of the second, third, and fourth volumes in 1978, 1982, and 1985 (Volumes 160, 197, and 243 of the above series). The present book constitutes the fifth volume of the bibliography and covers the period from autumn 1984 to the end of 1987. It contains 5864 new publications by 4480 authors and was compiled by Rabe von Randow. Its form is practically identical to that of the first four volumes, some additions having been made to the subject list.

Book Principles of Sequencing and Scheduling

Download or read book Principles of Sequencing and Scheduling written by Kenneth R. Baker and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-06-05 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An up-to-date and comprehensive treatment of the fundamentals of scheduling theory, including recent advances and state-of-the-art topics Principles of Sequencing and Scheduling strikes a unique balance between theory and practice, providing an accessible introduction to the concepts, methods, and results of scheduling theory and its core topics. With real-world examples and up-to-date modeling techniques, the book equips readers with the basic knowledge needed for understanding scheduling theory and delving into its applications. The authors begin with an introduction and overview of sequencing and scheduling, including single-machine sequencing, optimization and heuristic solution methods, and models with earliness and tardiness penalties. The most current material on stochastic scheduling, including correct scheduling of safety time and the use of simulation for optimization, is then presented and integrated with deterministic models. Additional topical coverage includes: Extensions of the basic model Parallel-machine models Flow shop scheduling Scheduling groups of jobs The job shop problem Simulation models for the dynamic job shop Network methods for project scheduling Resource-constrained project scheduling Stochastic and safe scheduling Extensive end-of-chapter exercises are provided, some of which are spreadsheet-oriented, and link scheduling theory to the most popular analytic platform among today's students and practitioners—the Microsoft Office Excel® spreadsheet. Extensive references direct readers to additional literature, and the book's related Web site houses material that reinforces the book's concepts, including research notes, data sets, and examples from the text. Principles of Sequencing and Scheduling is an excellent book for courses on sequencing and scheduling at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels. It is also a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners in the fields of statistics, computer science, operations research, and engineering.

Book An Interactive Program for the Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Due Dates

Download or read book An Interactive Program for the Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Due Dates written by Charles A. Holloway and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interactive scheduling procedures for job shop problems are appealing because current scheduling techniques cannot deal with the problem in its full complexity. The report presents an interactive model which builds on a multi-pass heuristic scheduling procedure for the due-date problem. The program allows a human scheduler to interact to improve schedules and modify problem descriptions in an attempt to arrive at a satisfactory solution. A discussion of the model's capabilities and detailed operating procedures are contained in the report. (Author).

Book Evaluation of Due Date Assignment Rules for Dynamically Arriving Projects

Download or read book Evaluation of Due Date Assignment Rules for Dynamically Arriving Projects written by John Dumond and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research is concerned with the problem of assigning due dates and scheduling projects to meet those due dates in a system where resources are constrained and new projects arrive continuously. In particular, the objective is to evaluate various combinations of due date assignment rules and scheduling heuristics which minimize project completion time and meets the project due date. This research: 1) develops a framework for the dynamic, constrained multiple resource, multi-project scheduling problem; 2) develops and evaluates a number of due date assignment rules; 3) develops and evaluates a number of multi-project scheduling heuristics for the dynamic environment; and 4) presents a simulation model which could be used for academic research on several multi resource scheduling problems. A number of the due date assignment rules that are examined in this study are derivations or extensions of due date assignment rules found in dynamic, job shop scheduling research. The rules are, for the most part, easy to implement and could lead to substantial improvement in estimating/establishing job completion dates. Keywords: computerized simulation.

Book Due Date Related Scheduling with Two Agents

Download or read book Due Date Related Scheduling with Two Agents written by Yunqiang Yin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2021-02-20 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an introduction to the models, methods, and results of some due date-related scheduling problems in the field of multiagent scheduling. In multiagent scheduling, two or more agents share a common processing resource and each agent wants to optimize its own objective function with respect to its own set of jobs. Since the agents have conflicting objective functions, they have to negotiate among themselves with regard to sharing the common resource to optimize their own objective functions. A key feature of due date-related scheduling concerns the way in which due dates are considered: they can be given parameters or decision variables. For the former case, the motivation stems from the need to improve inventory and production management. For the latter case, due date assignment becomes a challenging issue since the decision-maker has to balance inventory holding costs against the benefits of fulfifilling orders in time. As for due dates, this book addresses the following three different scenarios: (i) The due dates of the jobs from either one or both of the two agents are decision variables, which are determined using some due date assignment models; (ii) The due dates of jobs in each job set are considered as given parameters, whereas which due date corresponds to a given job needs to determine; and (iii) The due date of each job is exogenously given. When the last case is involved, the objective function of each agent is related to the number of just-in-time jobs that are completed exactly on their due dates. For each considered scenario, depending on the model settings, and on the objective function of each agent, this book addresses the complexity, and the design of efficient exact or approximated algorithms. This book aims at introducing the author's research achievements in due date-related scheduling with two agents. It is written for researchers and Ph.D. students working in scheduling theory and other members of scientific community who are interested in recent scheduling models. Our goal is to enable the reader to know about some new achievements on this topic.
