Abstract

Optimal Two Stage Open Shop Specially Structured Scheduling To Minimize The Rental Cost

Shashi Bala

The present paper is an attempt to develop a heuristic algorithm for two machines specially structured open shop scheduling in which order of processing is not given (A → B or B → A). Further the processing time of jobs are associated with their probabilities under some well defined structural relationship to one another. The objective of the paper is to minimize the rental cost of machines under a specified rental policy. A numerical illustration is given to support the algorithm.
