To schedule n jobs on m parallel machines with the minimum total cost is the parallel machine scheduling (PMS) problem. Generally, there is a hypothesis: a job cannot be processed on two machines simultaneously
The study considers a parallel machine scheduling (PMS) problem with time-dependent deterioration and multiple rate-modifying activities (RMAs). The objective of the problem is to simultaneously determine the number and positions of RMAs and a schedule of jobs on parallel machines to minimize the ...
The goal is to schedule all of the requests non-preemptively in their start-time-end-time windows, subjecting to PM capacity constraints, such that the total busy time of all used PMs is minimized (called MinTBT-ON for abbreviation). This problem is a fundamental scheduling problem for ...
A parallel machine scheduling problem in plastic production is studied in this paper. In this problem, the processing time and arrival time are uncertain but lie in their respective intervals. In addition, each job must be processed together with a mold while jobs which belong to one family can...

In general, PMS can be classified into three categories according to the types of machines, namely, identical machines, ...
Each job and machine is available at time zero. ■ Each job can be processed on only one machine at a time. ■ Operations cannot be interrupted. ■ Preemption is not allowed. The problem is composed of the scheduling sub-problem and machine assignment sub-problem. The goal of the problem...

Parallel machines scheduling problems (PMSPs) exist in the industry since most manufacturing operations aim to produce lots of similar products in a defined time period. Some incoming jobs have different sizes and due dates; plus, the production capacity, setup time, job processing...
This paper investigates a new problem in an identical parallel machine environment called parallel machine scheduling with job family, release time, and mold availability constraints (PMS-JRM), which is highly challenging from the computational perspective as it extends the basic NP-hard problemPm||...
