Non-approximability Results for Scheduling Problems with Minsum Criteria
We provide several non-approximability results for deterministic scheduling problems whose objective is to minimize the total job completion time. Unless P = NP, none of the probl...

Combining simplex with niche-based evolutionary computation for job-shop scheduling
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...

Structural Advantages for Ant Colony Optimisation Inherent in Permutation Scheduling Problems
When using a constructive search algorithm, solutions to scheduling problems such as the job shop and open shop scheduling problems are typically represented as permutations of the...

Packing: Scheduling, Embedding, and Approximating Metrics
Abstract. Many problems in computer science are related to scheduling problems or embedding problems. Therefore it is an interesting topic to find efficient (approximation) algori...
