Single-Machine Scheduling to Minimize Makespan with Deterioration Jobs and Multi-Maintenance Activities

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper explored a single-machine scheduling deterioration jobs with multi-maintenance activities. The non-resumable case and simple linear deterioration effect were taken into account as well. We assumed that after a maintenance activity, the machine will revert to its initial condition and the deterioration effect will start anew. The objective was to minimize the makespan in the system. The problem was proven to be NP-hard in the strong sense. Therefore, a heuristic and a lower bound were introduced and tested numerically. Computational results showed that the proposed algorithm performed well.
