Dimensional tolerances are critical for making parts that will fit together in an assembly and meet the design and performance goals. Getting the tolerances wrong could easily mean parts will be too ...
Abstract: This paper studied a novel parallel machine rescheduling problem with controllable processing times under machine breakdown and precedence constraints. This problem is strongly $\mathcal {NP ...
Abstract: The work deals with the NP-hard problem of scheduling tasks on two machines with the sum-cost criterion. In this problem, each task must be performed sequentially on the first and then on ...
