This paper reviews the literature related to the class of scheduling problems that involve
sequence-dependent setup times (costs), an important consideration in many practical …

The first comprehensive survey paper on scheduling problems with separate setup times or
costs was conducted by [Allahverdi, A., Gupta, JND, Aldowaisan, T., 1999. A review of …

In this work a genetic algorithm is presented for the unrelated parallel machine scheduling
problem in which machine and job sequence dependent setup times are considered. The …

Much of the research on operations scheduling problems has either ignored setup times or
assumed that setup times on each machine are independent of the job sequence. This …

The problem addressed in this paper is the non-preemptive unrelated parallel machine
scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the makespan. Machine-dependent and …

This paper addresses the non-preemptive unrelated parallel machine scheduling problem
with machine-dependent and sequence-dependent setup times. All jobs are available at …

In this paper, an integrated production and distribution problem for perishable products is
presented, which is an NP hard problem where a single machine, multi-customers, and …

This paper provides practitioners with new approaches for solving realistic scheduling
problems that consider additional resources, which can be implemented on expert and …

This paper explores scheduling flexible flow lines with sequence-dependent setup times.
Three major types of heuristics are explored. Insertion heuristics (based on insertion …

In this study unrelated parallel machine scheduling problem (UPMSP) with preventive
maintenance (PM) and sequence dependent setup times (SDST) is investigated. A multi-sub …
