This paper studies a version of the job shop scheduling problem in which some operations have to be scheduled within non-relaxable time windows i.e. earliest latest possible start...
—The Job-Shop Scheduling Problem (JSSP) is one of the most critical combinatorial optimization problems. The objective of JSSP in this research is to minimize the makespan. In th...

Given a set of numbers, the two-way partitioning problem is to divide them into two subsets, so that the sum of the numbers in each subset are as nearly equal as possible. The pro...
In this paper, a novel discrete differential evolution (DDE) algorithm is presented to solve the permutation flowhop scheduling problem with the makespan criterion. The DDE algori...

A well known industry application that allows controllable processing times is the manufacturing operations on CNC machines. For each turning operation as an example, there is a n...
