This paper gives a review on existing scheduling methodologies developed for process
industries. Above all, the aim of the paper is to focus on the industrial aspects of scheduling …

We review the integration of medium-term production planning and short-term scheduling.
We begin with an overview of supply chain management and the associated planning …

Scheduling is a major component for the efficient operation of the process industries.
Especially in the current competitive globalized market, scheduling is of vital importance to …

In this paper, we present a brief overview of enterprise-wide optimization and challenges in
multiscale temporal modeling and integration of different models for the levels of planning …

We propose linear generalized disjunctive programming (GDP) models for the short-term
scheduling problem of single stage batch plants with parallel units. Three different concepts …

We propose a general method for the solution of chemical production scheduling problems
in network environments. The method consists of three stages. In the first stage, a discrete …

As a vital part of future low carbon energy systems, storage technologies need to be
included in the overall optimisation of energy systems. However, this comes with a price of …

Industrial environments frequently face disruptive events. This contribution presents a
support framework, aimed at addressing the repair-based reactive scheduling problem. It is …

In this paper, we present an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for the
hybrid flowshop scheduling (HFS) problem to minimize total weighted completion time. This …

This paper presents new mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) approaches for handling
preemption both in discrete and continuous-time scheduling formulations. Preemption refers …
