Heuristic for unrelated machine scheduling with precedence constraints

Article Abstract:

Development of heuristics was undertaken to resolve office scheduling problem. Two assignment heuristics created showed effectiveness in terms of assigning tasks to employees and scheduling assigned tasks to resolve previously identified limitations. A developed intuitive heuristic, meanwhile, proved to be efficient in directly creating a viable schedule. A simulated annealing strategy was also employed in scheduling assigned tasks.

Scheduling of piecewise constant product flows: a Petri net approach

Article Abstract:

A class of Petri nets called Controllable-Output nets or CO nets was utilized to model schedulling in a manufacturing system. The CO nets allows the introduction of a two-stage scheduling algorithm for problems with piecewise constant product flows. The algorithm introduced involves the division of workload among resources and creation of a schedule based on resource workload.
