Minimizing Time-Dependent Total Completion Time on Parallel Identical Machines

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 3019))

Abstract

In the paper a problem of minimizing the total completion time for deteriorating jobs and parallel identical machines is considered. The processing time of each job is a linear function of the starting time of the job. The properties of an optimal schedule are proved and a greedy heuristic for the problem is proposed. Preliminary results of experimental evaluation of the algorithm are given.

The research has been partially supported by KBN grant no. 4T11C 03925.
