Optimization for due-window assignment scheduling with position-dependent weights (Q2195512): Difference between revisions

Summary: This paper considers a single-machine due-window assignment scheduling problem with position-dependent weights, where the weights only depend on their position in a sequence. The objective is to minimise the total weighted penalty of earliness, tardiness, due-window starting time, and due-window size of all jobs. Optimal properties of the problem are given, and then, a polynomial-time algorithm is provided to solve the problem. An extension to the problem is offered by assuming general position-dependent processing time.
