We propose a hybrid algorithm (called ALPINE) between Genetic Algorithm and Dantzig's Simplex method to approximate optimal solutions for the Flexible Job-Shop Problem. Local...
Abstract. In order to evaluate different scheduling strategies for parallel computers, simulations are often executed. As the scheduling quality highly depends on the workload tha...
Scheduling of multiple parallel machinesin the face of sequence dependent setups and downstream considerations is a hard problem. No single efficient algorithm is guaranteedto pro...
GridX1 is a computational grid deployment of off-theshelf components using shared resources at several Canadian research institutions. This work evaluates the applicability of kna...

The proportionate flow shop (PFS) is considered as a unique case of the flow shop problem in which the processing times of the operations belonging to the same job are equal. A pr...
