This research analyzes the problem of scheduling a set of n jobs with arbitrary job sizes and
non-zero ready times on a set of m unrelated parallel batch processing machines so as to …

A simulated annealing (SA) algorithm to minimize the makespan on a group of identical
batch processing machines arranged in parallel is presented. We consider the case where …

This study addresses the problem of scheduling a set of n jobs with arbitrary job sizes and
non-zero ready times on a set of m unrelated parallel batch machines with different …

Fabric dyeing is a critical production process in the clothing industry. Characterized by high
energy consumption and water pollutant emission, dyeing processes need careful …

This paper investigates the problem of scheduling a set of jobs with arbitrary sizes and non-
zero release times on a set of unrelated parallel batch machines with different capacities so …

This paper addresses a scheduling problem motivated by scheduling of diffusion operations
in the wafer fabrication facility. In the target problem, jobs arrive at the batch machines at …

This paper investigates the problem of scheduling jobs on parallel batch processing
machines with incompatible job families, non-identical job sizes, arbitrary job release times …

This paper proposes an efficient heuristic algorithm for solving a complex batching and
scheduling problem in a diffusion area of a semiconductor plant. Diffusion is frequently the …

In this paper we consider the problem of scheduling a set of identical batch processing
machines arranged in parallel. A Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure (GRASP) …

This paper investigates the problem scheduling a set of jobs on parallel batch processing
machines with different capacities and non-identical processing powers for minimizing the …
