    A Hybrid Tabu Search Algorithm for the Variable Periodic Vehicle Routing Problem

    This paper presents a real-life variable periodic vehicle routing problem (VPVRP) which is originated from an auto parts company. The idea of lean production has been applied in the production of the auto part...

    Makespan minimization for two parallel machines with an unavailable period on each machine

    In this paper, we consider a two parallel machine problem where each machine has a fixed and known unavailable period. The objective is to minimize the makespan. In the literature, the problem has been conside...

    Minimizing the Range of Order Completion Times with Multiple Job Classes

    A number of important contributions have been made toward the problem of minimizing the difference in ‘customer’ treatment on a single machine. However, so far, all the research has been to solve the problem o...

    An Improved Formulation for the Job-Shop Scheduling Problem

    This paper presents an extension of an earlier integer programming model developed by other authors to formulate a general n-job, m-machine job-shop problem. The new formulation involves substantially fewer funct...
