Optimization models related to designing and operating complex systems are mainly
focused on some efficiency metrics such as response time, queue length, throughput, and …

The flexible job-shop scheduling problem (FJSP) is a well-known combinational
optimization problem. Studying FJSP is essential for promoting production efficiency and …

In this paper, we are concerned with the resolution of a multiobjective complex job-shop
scheduling problem stemming from semiconductor manufacturing. To produce feasible and …

This paper considers the job-shop problem with release dates and due dates, with the
objective of minimizing the total weighted tardiness. A genetic algorithm is combined with an …

Graphs are powerful tools to model manufacturing systems and scheduling problems. The
complexity of these systems and their scheduling problems has been substantially …

In this paper we consider the job shop scheduling problem with total weighted tardiness
objective (JSPTWT). This objective reflects the goal to achieve a high service level which is …

The flexible job shop scheduling is a challenging problem due to its high complexity and the
huge number of applications it has in real production environments. In this paper, we …

This paper studies the problem of determining energy efficient schedules in a flexible job
shop. The goal is to minimize the total energy cost, given a time-of-use pricing scheme …

This article introduces a framework that unifies and generalizes well-known literature results
related to local search for the job-shop and flexible job-shop scheduling problems. In …

Efficient scheduling benefits productivity promotion, cost savings, and customer satisfaction.
In recent years, with a growing concern about the energy price and environmental impact …
