Multiple jobs are processed simultaneously on a given batch processing machine in parallel
batching. The resulting batch is called a p-batch. Batching can lead to reduced production …

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 …

We address the no-wait k-stage flexible flowshop scheduling problem where there are m
identical machines at each stage. The objectives are to schedule the available n jobs so that …

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 …

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 research aims at scheduling a set of Batch Processing Machines (BPMs) used to test
printed circuit boards in an electronics manufacturing facility. The facility assembles and …

In this paper, a production–distribution scheduling problem with non-identical batch
machines and multiple vehicles is considered. In the production stage, n jobs are grouped …

This study applies artificial neural network (ANN) to achieve more accurate parameter
estimations in calculating job-priority-data of jobs and the same is applied in a proposed …

Given the mounting concern about service levels and environmental sustainability, mould
industry is facing growing pressure to improve delivery reliability and energy efficiency …

We present in this study an algorithmic framework of an intelligent scheduling system that
aims to provide an optimum planning for the production process of cutting tools taking into …
