Abstract— Over the last years, interest in hybrid metaheuristics has risen considerably in the field of optimization. Combinations of methods such as evolutionary algorithms and...
When applied to real-world problems, the powerful optimization tool of Evolutionary Algorithms frequently turns out to be too time-consuming due to elaborate fitness calculations t...
This paper studies a new generalization of the regular permutation flowshop scheduling problem (PFSP) referred to as the distributed permutation flowshop scheduling problem or DPF...
We consider the problem of off-line throughput maximization for job scheduling on one or more machines, where each job has a release time, a deadline and a profit. Most of the ver...
In this paper we study the problem of scheduling messages between two parallel machines connected by a low latency network during a data redistribution. We compare two approaches....
