储存时间有上限的两阶段供应链排序问题

研究一类储存时间有上限的两阶段供应链排序问题.两阶段是指工件先加工,后运输:加工阶段是一台加工机器逐个加工工件;运输阶段是无限台车辆分批运输完工的工件.工件的运输完成时刻与完工时刻之差定义为工件的储存时间,且有相应的储存费用,且任意工件的储存时间都不超过某一常数.若工件的运输完成时刻早于(晚于)交货期窗口的开始(结束)时刻,则有相应的提前(延误)惩罚费用.目标是极小化总提前惩罚费用、总延误惩罚费用、总储存费用、总运输费用以及与交货期窗口有关的费用之和.先证明该问题是NP-难的,后对单位时间的储存费用不超过单位时间的延误惩罚费用的情形给出了伪多项式时间算法.

带学习效应和资源依赖的单机排序模型

在工业生产中,随着员工操作技能的熟练程度的增加,对于相同的任务越往后加工,所花的时间将会减少。 同时,为了尽早完工,管理者也会考虑给加工工件分配一定量的额外资源来缩短工件加工时间。 本文基于以上实例,讨论了工件的实际加工时间既具有学习效应又依赖所分配资源的单机排序问题。 在问题中,假设工件的学习效应是之前已加工工件正常加工时间和的指数函数。 同时随着分配给工件资源量的增加,工件的实际加工时间呈线性减少,所需费用呈线性增加。对这一排序模型,主要探讨以下五个目标函数:最小化最大完工时间与资源消耗量总费用的和;最小化总完工时间与资源消耗量总费用的和;最小化加权总完工时间与资源消耗量总费用的和;最小化总提前、总延误、总共同交货期与资源消耗量总费用的和以及最小化总提前、总延误、总松弛交货期与资源消耗量总费用的和。 本文对前三个目标函数相应的排序问题给出了多项式时间可求解的算法。 对后两个目标函数所涉及的排序问题借助于指派问题分别给出了时间复杂性为O(n³)的算法。

Single-machine common due window assignment and scheduling to minimize the total cost

In this paper we consider a single-machine common due window assignment and scheduling problem with batch delivery cost. The starting time and size of the due window are decision variables. Finished jobs are delivered in batches. There is no capacity limit on each delivery batch, and the cost per batch delivery is fixed and independent of the number of jobs in the batch. The objective is to find a job sequence, a delivery date for each job, and a starting time and a size for the due window that jointly minimize the total cost comprising earliness, weighted number of tardy jobs, job holding, due window starting time and size, and batch delivery. We provide some properties of the optimal solution and present polynomial-time algorithms for the problem.     

Soft due window assignment and scheduling of unit-time jobs on parallel machines

We study problems of scheduling n unit-time jobs on m identical parallel machines, in which a common due window has to be assigned to all jobs. If a job is completed within the due window, then no scheduling cost incurs. Otherwise, a job-dependent earliness or tardiness cost incurs. The job completion times, the due window location and the size are integer valued decision variables. The objective is to find a job schedule as well as the location and the size of the due window such that a weighted sum or maximum of costs associated with job earliness, job tardiness and due window location and size is minimized. We establish properties of optimal solutions of these min-sum and min-max problems and reduce them to min-sum (traditional) or min-max (bottleneck) assignment problems solvable in O(n ⁵/m ²) and O(n ^4.5log^0.5 n/m ²) time, respectively. More efficient solution procedures are given for the case in which the due window size cost does not exceed the due window start time cost, the single machine case, the case of proportional earliness and tardiness costs and the case of equal earliness and tardiness costs.     

Common due window size and location determination in a single machine scheduling problem

We consider a single machine static and deterministic scheduling problem in which jobs have a common due window. Jobs completed within the window incur no penalties, other jobs incur either earliness or tardiness penalties. The objective is to find the optimal size and location of the window as well as an optimal sequence to minimise a cost function based on earliness, tardiness, window size, and window location. We propose an O(n log n) algorithm to solve the problem.     

Single machine SLK/DIF due window assignment problem with job-dependent linear deterioration effects

We consider single machine scheduling problems with deteriorating jobs and SLK/DIF due window assignment, where the deteriorating rates of jobs are assumed to be job-dependent. We consider two different objectives under SLK and DIF due window assignment, respectively. The first objective is to minimise total costs of earliness, tardiness, due window location and due window size, while the second objective is to minimise a cost function that includes number of early jobs, number of tardy jobs and the costs for due window location and due window size. We study the optimality properties for all problems and develop algorithms for solving these problems in polynomial time.     

带强制工期的可中断单机排序问题

工件带强制工期,指工件必须在已给定的工期内完工,不得延迟.这种环境在实际应用中随处可见.如果工件过早提前完工,意味着工件还需要保管,将会产生额外费用.本文讨论了在单机上,加工带准备时间与强制工期的n个可中断工件,在机器可空闲条件下,确定一个工件排序,使得提前完工时间和最小.先考虑了问题的复杂性,通过奇偶划分问题归约,证明了其是NP-complete的.而后,讨论了加工时间相等的特殊情形,由于工件不允许延迟,问题可能会无可行排序,因此提出了—个多项式时间算法,既能判定可行性,又能针对可行问题获得最优排序.     

Scheduling problems with random processing times under expected earliness/tardiness costs

This work is concerned with scheduling problems for a single machine. Taking earliness and tardiness of completion time and due–date value into consideration, the objective function with a common due date is considered. The processing time of each job is random. Sufficient conditions guaranteeing an optimal SEPT sequence are derived. Under exponential and normal processing times, further results are obtained     

Determination of common due window location in a single machine scheduling problem

We consider the static deterministic single machine scheduling problem in which all jobs have a common due window. Jobs that are completed within the window incur no penalty. The objective is to find the optimal sequence and the optimal common due window location given that the due window size is a problem parameter such that the weighted sum of earliness, tardiness, and due window location penalties is minimized. We propose an O(n log n) algorithm to solve the problem. We also consider two special cases for which simple solutions can be obtained.     

Single machine SLK/DIF due window assignment problem with learning effect and deteriorating jobs

We study a single-machine scheduling and due window assignment problem, in which job processing times are defined by functions of their starting times (deteriorating effect) and positions in the sequence (learning effect). The problem is to determine the optimal due windows and the processing sequence simultaneously to minimize costs for earliness, tardiness, the window location, window size and makespan. We show that the problem remains polynomially solvable under the proposed model for two popular due window assignment methods: The slack due date assignment method (usually referred to as SLK) and the unrestricted due date assignment method (usually referred to as DIF).     

Scheduling about a common due date with kob-dependent asymmetric earliness and tardiness penalties

This paper is concerned with the problem of scheduling n jobs with a common due date on a single machine so as to minimize the total cost arising from earliness and tardiness. A general model is examined, in which earliness penalty and tardiness penalty are, respectively, arbitrary non-decreasing functions. Moreover, the model includes two important features that commonly appear in practical problems, namely, 1) earliness and tardiness are penalized with different weights which are job-dependent, and 2) the earliness (or tardiness) penalty consists of two parts, one is a variable cost dependent on the length of earliness (or tardiness), while the other is a fixed cost incurred when a job is early (or tardy). This model provides a general and flexible performance measure for earliness/tardiness scheduling, which has not been addressed before. We establish a number of results on the characterizations of optimal and sub-optimal solutions, and propose two algorithms based on these results. The first algorithm can find, under an agreeable weight condition, an optimum in time O(n² P_n), and the second algorithm can generate a sub-optimum in time O(nP_n), where P_n is the sum of the processing times. Further, we derive an upper bound on the relative error of the sub-optimal solution and show that, under certain conditions, the error tends to zero as n increases. Computational results are also reported to demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithms proposed.
