Scheduling algorithms lie at the heart of manufacturing systems optimisation by determining the order and allocation of tasks to resources. Their development is crucial for minimising production ...

The paper considers a project scheduling problem in weighted directed graphs in which arcs represent operations while nodes are identified with starting and finishing endpoints of the operations; arc ...

This paper considers the problem of scheduling n jobs, each having a processing time, a due date and a weight, on a single machine to minimize the weighted number of late jobs. An O (n log n) ...
