A Fluid Heuristic for Minimizing Makespan in Job Shops
We describe a simple on-line heuristic for scheduling job-shops. We assume there is a fixed set of routes for the jobs, and many jobs, say N, on each route. The heuristic uses saf...

Vehicle Routing and Job Shop Scheduling: What's the Difference?
Despite a number of similarities, vehicle routing problems and scheduling problems are typically solved with different techniques. In this paper, we undertake a systematic study o...

Variable Neighbourhood Search for Job Shop Scheduling Problems
Variable Neighbourhood Search (VNS) is one of the most recent metaheuristics used for problem solving in which a systematic change of neighbourhood within a local search is carried...

Iterative Flattening: A Scalable Method for Solving Multi-Capacity Scheduling Problems
One challenge for research in constraint-based scheduling has been to produce scalable solution procedures under fairly general representational assumptions. Quite often, the comp...

A New Hybrid Genetic Algorithm for the Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Setup Times
In this paper we face the Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Sequence Dependent Setup Times by means of a genetic algorithm hybridized with local search. We have built on a previous...
