A SURVEY OF ALGORITHMS FOR SINGLE AND MULTI-OBJECTIVE UNRELATED PARALLEL-MACHINE DETERMINISTIC SCHEDULING PROBLEMS (2008)

Michele Pfund, John W. Fowler

This paper surveys the literature related to solving traditional unrelated parallel-machine scheduling problems. It compiles algorithms for the makespan, total weighted sum of completion times,...

Development Of A Robust Scheduling Rule For A Printed Wiring Board Drilling Operation With Multiple Scheduling Objectives And Fixed Order Release / Pickup Times (2007)

Lauren Fowler, Michele Pfund, Lian Yu, John W. Fowler, W. Matthew Carlyle

We investigate the performance of five approaches to scheduling a Japanese printed wiring board manufacturer’s drilling operation subject to uncertainty. We present and evaluate two optimization...

Scheduling interfering job sets on parallel machines

Balasubramanian, Hari, Fowler, John, Keha, Ahmet, Pfund, Michele

We consider bicriteria scheduling on identical parallel machines in a nontraditional context: jobs belong to two disjoint sets, and each set has a different criterion to be minimized. The jobs are...
