On scheduling around large restrictive common due windows

This paper deals with the problem of scheduling a number of jobs on a single machine around a large, restrictive common due window. We consider individual earliness and tardiness penalties for the jobs. The objective is to find an optimal schedule which jointly minimizes the sum of the earliness and tardiness penalties. This problem is intractable and hence no efficient procedure for solving large instances is expected to be found. For this reason we first introduced a mapping of the problem which takes advantage of the structural properties inherent to optimal solutions. Secondly we solved the problem under study by using this mapping and applying three meta-heuristics, namely evolutionary strategy, simulated annealing and threshold accepting. To validate the quality of these approaches, altogether 250 benchmark problems with different window sizes and positions of up to 200 jobs are examined. Furthermore small instances are solved to optimality by a mixed integer programming formulation.     

Study on the Binding Characteristic of S-Naproxen Imprinted Polymer and the Interactions between Templates and Monomers

S-naproxen imprinted polymer was prepared with acrylamide as a functional monomer, 1,4-butanediyl diacrylate as a new kind of crossliner, and 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoylphenyl-phosphinic acid ethyl ester as photoinitiator. Their UV and IR spectra were applied to study the interactions between the template and the monomer. Binding experiments showed that the S-naproxen imprinted polymer had better recognition capability for the template than that of a blank polymer. The adsorption distribution coefficient KD of S-naproxen on molecularly-imprinted polymer was 153.2 g/mL, and the separation factor was 1.95 when the initial concentration of substrate was 2.0 mmol/L. Scatchard curves suggested that there were two classes of binding sites in the imprinted polymer and only one class in the blank polymer. Computer simulation using Hyperchem showed the existence of the interactions between the template and the functional monomer as well as the models of the complexes formed by the template and the monomer.

Determination of polymeric aluminum in soil extracted with a modified anion-exchange resin as a solid-phase adsorbent by ICP-AES.

In the present work, a new method was established by applying solid-phase extraction (SPE) to preconcentrate and separate polymeric aluminum (Al) and using ICP-AES to determine the polymeric Al, the total monomeric Al, and the total Al in soil extracts, respectively. A modified resin was prepared with impregnated 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfoxinate (HQS) on the anion-exchange resin. It has good recognition ability for Al fractions, compared to the commonly used cation ion-exchange resin, which has a better ability to adsorb cations and a weak ability to recognize detailed Al species. The optimum conditions for Al fractionation sorption, elution and separation and the interference of foreign ions were studied with the prepared resin by continuous column and batch procedures. Monomeric Al was bound to Pyrocathecol Violet (PCV) at pH 6.2, whereas the polymeric Al species did not react with PCV for at least 15 min. Because a stable complex of Al-PCV was not absorbed on the HQS modified resin, the polymeric Al could be preconcentrated on-line by the HQS-modified resin. The adsorbed polymeric Al was eluted with 3 mL of 3 mol L(-1) of HCl, and then detected by ICP-AES. The method has been applied to directly determine polymeric Al in soil extracts with high selectivity as well as a high preconcentration factor. It gives a limit of detection of 0.6 ng mL(-1) with a relative standard deviation of less than 5.7% (n = 5, 0.24 microg mL(-1) Al).     

Enantiomeric separation of basic drugs with partially filled serum albumin as chiral selector in capillary electrophoresis.

A reliable method is presented for the chiral separation of three basic drugs (mexiletine, chlorpheniramine and propranolol) with serum albumins (human and porcine, HSA and PSA) as chiral selectors by capillary electrophoresis in combination with the partial filling technique. Based on the systematic optimization of operation variables, the chiral separation of mexiletine, chlorpheniramine and propranolol was achieved in the pH 7.4 phosphate buffer by using HSA, PSA and PSA as selectors, respectively. The chiral recognition ability of HSA and PSA was compared. HSA and PSA show a different chiral recognition ability for each of the three drugs. In addition, the association constants between enantiomeric drugs and proteins were determined to be 2.00 and 3.80 x 10(2) M(-1) for mexiletine and HSA, 0.59 and 1.12 x 10(3) M(-1) for chlorpheniramine and PSA, and 0.87 and 1.42 x 10(3) M(-1) for propranolol and PSA. The method for the chiral separation and determination of association constants possesses the advantages of simple performance, effective avoiding of the interference of the UV detection from protein, and lowering of the reagent consumption.
