The integration in production planning, scheduling, maintenance and quality has gained
much attention from researchers in recent years. These areas are usually treated …

Most conventional scheduling problems use production efficiency, cost and quality as their
preeminent optimization objectives. However, because of increasing costs of energy and …

This paper reviews results related to the parallel machine scheduling problem under
availability constraints. The motivation of this paper comes from the fact that no survey …

This work focuses on a new flexible scheduling problem in the job-shop that considers both
maintenance activity and repairman competence under maintenance time window and …

This paper deals with an integrated optimisation model for production scheduling and
preventive maintenance (PM) in a single machine with its time to failure subject to a Weibull …

This paper addresses the production scheduling problem on a single machine with flexible
periodic preventive maintenances (PM), where jobs' release dates are also considered. Both …

Due to environmental circumstances encountered in manufacturing processes, operating
machines need to be maintained preventively, so as to ensure satisfactory operating …

This research focuses on a scheduling problem with multiple unavailability periods and
distinct due dates. The objective is to minimize the sum of maximum earliness and tardiness …

Combination of job scheduling and maintenance activity has been widely investigated in the
literature. We consider a non-identical parallel machines batch processing (BP) problem …

The Job-Shop Scheduling Problem (JSP) is an important concern in advanced
manufacturing systems. In real applications, uncertainties exist practically everywhere in the …
