优化交货期窗口的两阶段供应链排序问题

研究一类优化交货期窗口的两阶段供应链排序问题. 优化交货期窗口是指交货期窗口的开始与结束时刻是决策变量, 不是输入常量. 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. 工件的开始运输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. 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. 针对单位时间的延误惩罚费用不超过单位时间的储存费用、单位时间的储存费用不超过单位时间的提前惩罚费用的情形, 给出了时间复杂性为O(n^{8})的动态规划算法.     

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。

工件有交货期的两人合作排序博弈问题

随着社会发展与进步,合作共赢已经成为一种共识,但人们出于自身利益的考虑,在合作的过程中总是希望自身利益最大,这就是合作博弈.合作博弈研究的问题就是要找到一个恰当的收益分配方案,使参加合作的所有利益主体愿意合作.这里考虑两人合作共同加工一批有交货期的工件排序博弈问题.每人提供一台机器用于工件的加工,工件加工时间是开工时间的简单线性函数,以最小的最大延误作为加工成本.设计一个多项式时间动态规划算法寻找到一个合理的博弈解集,由合作双方在解集中选定最终的合作收益分配方案,即找到最终的博弈解.

Scheduling with agreeable release times and due dates on a batch processing machine

We consider the problem of scheduling semiconductor burn-in operations, where burn-in ovens are modeled as batch processing machines. The job release times and due dates are assumed to be agreeable. Two different objective functions are considered: minimize the maximum tardiness and minimize the number of tardy jobs. We study the complexity of the problems. Efficient algorithms are also provided for the case when the job release times, due dates, and processing times are agreeable, which generalize those provided by Lee, Uzsoy and Martin-Vega (1992).     

A branch and bound algorithm for scheduling jobs with controllable processing times on a single machine to meet due dates

In most deterministic scheduling problems, job-processing times are regarded as constant and known in advance. However, in many realistic environments, job-processing times can be controlled by the allocation of a common resource to jobs. In this paper, we consider the problem of scheduling jobs with arbitrary release dates and due dates on a single machine, where job-processing times are controllable and are modeled by a non-linear convex resource consumption function. The objective is to determine simultaneously an optimal processing permutation as well as an optimal resource allocation, such that no job is completed later than its due date, and the total resource consumption is minimized. The problem is strongly NP\mathcal{NP}-hard. A branch and bound algorithm is presented to solve the problem. The computational experiments show that the algorithm can provide optimal solution for small-sized problems, and near-optimal solution for medium-sized problems in acceptable computing time.     

Minimizing the weighted number of late jobs in UET open shops

We consider a two-machine open shop problem where the jobs have release dates and due dates, and where all single operations have unit processing times. The goal is to minimize the weighted number of late jobs. We derive a polynomial time algorithm for this problem, thereby answering an open question posed in a recent paper by Brucker et al.This research was supported by the Christian Doppler Laboratorium für Diskrete Optimierung.     

Single machine scheduling and due date assignment with positionally dependent processing times

We consider single machine scheduling and due date assignment problems in which the processing time of a job depends on its position in a processing sequence. The objective functions include the cost of changing the due dates, the total cost of discarded jobs that cannot be completed by their due dates and, possibly, the total earliness of the scheduled jobs. We present polynomial-time dynamic programming algorithms in the case of two popular due date assignment methods: CON and SLK. The considered problems are related to mathematical models of cooperation between the manufacturer and the customer in supply chain scheduling.     

Single-machine scheduling problems with time and position dependent processing times

We consider single-machine scheduling problems with time and position dependent job processing times. In many industrial settings, the processing time of a job changes due to either job deterioration over time or machine/worker’s learning through experiences. In the models we study, each job has its normal processing time. However, a job’s actual processing time depends on when its processing starts and how many jobs have completed before its start. We prove that the classical SPT (Shortest Processing Time) rule remains optimal when we minimize the makespan or the total completion time. For problems of minimizing the total weighted completion time, the maximum lateness, and the discounted total weighted completion time, we present heuristic sequencing rules and analyze the worst-case bounds for performance ratios. We also show that these heuristic rules can be optimal under some agreeable conditions between the normal processing times and job due dates or weights.     

On unit time open shops with additional restrictions

We consider open shop problems with unit processing times,n jobs have to be processed onm machines. The order in which a given job is processed on the machines is not fixed. For each job a release time or a due date may be given. Additional, we consider the restriction that every machine must perform all corresponding operations without any delay time. Unit time open shop problems with release times to minimize total completion time were unsolved up to now for both allowed and forbidden delay times. We will solve these problems in the case of two and three machines. Furthermore we will give polynomial algorithms for several no-delay-problems with due dates.     

Scheduling jobs with different,job-dependent earliness and tardiness penalties using the SLK method

The single machine job scheduling problem, where due dates are assigned using the SLK due date determination method, is examined assuming different penalties for the early and tardy jobs. These penalties are assumed to be job-dependent, proportional to the processing times of jobs raised to an integer, non-negative power. The objective function is the total weighted lateness. Several cases are examined and four algorithms providing the optimal sequences for these cases are presented. Examples are given and conclusions are drawn.     

加工时间是开工时间线性分段函数的单机总误工问题

研究工件加工时间是开工时间的线性分段函数的单机排序问题,其中工件的加工时间是开工时间的线性增加函数,但是有一个上界,在时刻T(T是已知常数)以后开始加工的工件,其加工时间不再因开工时间的推迟而增大,优化的目标是极小化总误工工件数.当工件的工期与加工时间满足某种一致性关系的时候,不管工件的加工时间是开工时间的简单线性分段函数,还是其基本加工时间是与恶化率有关的分段线性函数,证明这两种情况都是多项式时间可解的.     

Single Machine Earliness-Tardiness Scheduling Problems Using the Equal—Slack Rule

The purpose of this paper is to analyse a special case of the non-pre-emptive single machine scheduling problem where the distinct due dates for each job are related to processing times according to the Equal–Slack rule. The scheduling objective is to minimize the sum of earliness and tardiness penalties. After determining some properties of the problem, the unrestricted case is shown to be equivalent to a polynomial time solvable problem, whereas the restricted case is shown to be NP-hard, and suggestions are made for further research.     

Scheduling with batch setup times and earliness-tardiness penalties

We consider a scheduling model in which several batches of jobs need to be processed by a single machine. During processing, a setup time is incurred whenever there is a switch from processing a job in one batch to a job in another batch. All the jobs in the same batch have a common due date that is either externally given as an input data or internally determined as a decision variable. Two problems are investigated. One problem is to minimize the total earliness and tardiness penalties provided that each due date is externally given. We show that this problem is NP-hard even when there are only two batches of jobs and the two due dates are unrestrictively large. The other problem is to minimize the total earliness and tardiness penalties plus the total due date penalty provided that each due date is a decision variable. We give some optimality properties for this problem with the general case and propose a polynomial dynamic programming algorithm for solving this problem with two batches of jobs. We also consider a special case for both of the problems when the common due dates for different batches are all equal. Under this special case, we give a dynamic programming algorithm for solving the first problem with an unrestrictively large due date and for solving the second problem. This algorithm has a running time polynomial in the number of jobs but exponential in the number of batches.
