Abstract--Manufacturing scheduling is an important but difficult task. In order to effectively solve such combinatorial optimization problems, this paper presents a novel Lagrangia...
Scheduling problems can be seen as a set of temporal metric and disjunctive constraints. So, they can be formulated in terms of CSPs techniques. In the literature, there are CSP-b...
In this paper we study how the framework of Petri nets can be extended and applied to study recurrent events. We use possibility theory to realistically model temporal properties o...
We review the applications of artificial life (ALife), the creation of synthetic life on computers to study, simulate, and understand living systems. The definition and features of...
Production scheduling, the problem of sequentially con guring a factory to meet forecasted demands, is a critical problem throughout the manufacturing industry. The requirement of...
