Resource Management in Machine Scheduling Problems: A Survey
Journal Title: Decision Making in Manufacturing and Services - Year 2007, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper is a survey devoted to job scheduling problems with resource allocation. We present the results available in the scientific literature for commonly used models of job processing times and job release dates, i.e., the models in which the job processing time or the job release date is given as a linear or convex function dependent on the amount of the additional resource allotted to the job. The scheduling models with resource dependent processing times or resource dependent release dates extend the classical scheduling models to reflect more precisely scheduling problems that appear in real life. Thus, in this paper we present the computational complexity results and solution algorithms that have been developed for this kind of problems.

Competitive location under proportional choice: 1-suboptimal points on networks
This paper is concerned with a competitive or voting location problem on networks under a proportional choice rule that has previously been introduced by Bauer et al. (1993). We refine a discretization result of the auth...
Ant Algorithm for AP-N Aimed at Optimization of Complex Systems
Assignment Problem (AP), which is well known combinatorial problem, has been studied extensively in the course of many operational and technical researches. It has been shown to be NP-hard for three or more dimensions an...
Selected Approaches for Testing Asset Pricing Models Using Polish Stock Market Data
The main objective of this paper was to discuss alternative methods for testing the Fama-French (FF) three-factor asset pricing model. The properties of the selected methods were compared in a simulation study. The main...
The Art and Science of Modeling Decision-Making Under Severe Uncertainty
For obvious reasons, models for decision-making under severe uncertainty are austere. Simply put, there is precious little to work with under these conditions. This fact highlights the great importance of utilizing in su...
A Bi-Objective Portfolio Optimization with Conditional Value-at-Risk
This paper presents a bi-objective portfolio model with the expected return as a performance measure and the expected worst-case return as a risk measure. The problems are formulated as a bi-objective linear program. Num...
