In order to apply texture measurement based heuristic commitment techniques beyond the unary capacity resource constraints of job shop scheduling, we extend the contention texture...

We present economically augmented job shop scheduling (EJSP) as an example of a coordination problem among selfinterested agents with private information. We discuss its signific...
This paper presents three techniques for using an iterated local search algorithm to improve the performance of a state-of-the-art branch and bound algorithm for job shop scheduli...
This paper investigates the use of genetic programming in automatized synthesis of scheduling heuristics. The applied scheduling technique is priority scheduling, where the next st...
In this paper, we present an ant system algorithm variant designed to solve the job shop scheduling problem. The proposed approach is based on a recent biological study which showe...
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...
We introduce the multiple capacitated job shop scheduling problem as a generalization of the job shop scheduling problem. In this problem machines may process several operations s...
A distributed problem solving approach to job shop scheduling is described in this paper. The approach views the system as an Organisation. Agents are assigned di erent roles and ...
This paper describes a GA for job shop scheduling problems. Using the Giffler and Thompson algorithm, we created two new operators, THX crossover and mutation, which better trans...

Abstract--Manufacturing scheduling is an important but difficult task. In order to effectively solve such combinatorial optimization problems, this paper presents a novel Lagrangia...
