We study the resource-constrained project scheduling problem with stochastic
activity durations. We introduce a new class of scheduling policies for solving
this problem, which make a number of a-priori sequencing decisions in a
pre-processing phase while the remaining decisions are made dynamically during
project execution. The pre-processing decisions entail the addition of extra
precedence cons... hiện toàn bộ

We present a general analysis of the problem of sequencing operations in
bufferless robotic cell flow shops with parallel machines. Our focus will be
cells that produce identical parts. The objective is to find a cyclic sequence
of robot moves that maximizes the steady state throughput. Parallel machines are
used in the industry to increase throughput, most typically at bottleneck
processes having... hiện toàn bộ
