Scheduling Jobs and A Variable Maintenance on A Single Machine with Common Due-window Assignment

Jianbo Gong, Long Wan, Wenchang Luo

Abstract


In this paper we investigate a common due-window assignment scheduling problem with a variable maintenance on a single machine. The goal is to minimize the total earliness, tardiness and due-window related costs. We derive some properties on an optimal solution for our problem. For a special case with identical jobs we propose an optimal polynomial time algorithm followed by a simple numerical example.

Keywords


scheduling, maintenance, common due-window assignment.
