Abstract: | In this study, we introduce a time-dependent learning effect into a single-machine scheduling problem. The time-dependent learning effect of a job is assumed to be a function of total normal processing time of jobs scheduled in front of it. We introduce it into a single-machine scheduling problem and we show that it remains polynomially solvable for the objective, i.e., minimizing the total completion time on a single machine. Moreover, we show that the SPT-sequence is the optimal sequence in this problem. |
