Abstract: | In this paper, the authors present a branch-and-bound approach for solving a two-machine flow shop scheduling problem , in which the objective is to minimize a weighted combination of job flowtime and schedule makespan. Experimental results show that the algorithm works very well for certain special cases and moderately well for others. In fact, it is able to produce optimal schedules for 500-job problems in which the second machine dominates the first machine. |
