A hybrid shifting bottleneck-tabu search heuristic for the job shop total weighted tardiness problem
: In this paper, we study the job shop scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the total weighted tardiness. We propose a hybrid shifting bottleneck - tabu search (SB-T...

Parallel Iterative A* Search: An Admissible Distributed Heuristic Search Algorithm
In this paper, a distributed heuristic search algorithm is presented. We show that the algorithm is admissible and give an informal analysis of its load balancing, scalability, an...

New solution methods for single machine bicriteria scheduling problem: Minimization of average flowtime and number of tardy jobs
We consider the bicriteria scheduling problem of minimizing the number of tardy jobs and average flowtime on a single machine. This problem, which is known to be NP-hard, is impor...
