DESCRIPTION:
… Most of the chapters contain the summarized complexity results. From the reviews of the fourth edition: "This is a book about scheduling algorithms. The book is well organized. It is suitable for researchers and graduate students in mathematics, computer science, operations research, management science, and industrial engineering. 50 (1), 2008). In this edition the complexity columns have been updated. The book is completed by the bibliography which also has been updated and now contains 198 references. … The book contains eleven chapters. 1060, 2005)From the reviews of the fifth edition: "One of the competitive books on the theory of machine scheduling
Among the methods used to solve these problems are linear programming, dynamic programming, branch-and-bound algorithms, and local search heuristics. Discussion also extends to multiprocessor task scheduling and problems with multi-purpose machines. The text goes on to summarize complexity results for different classes of deterministic scheduling problems.. Besides scheduling problems for single and parallel machines and shop scheduling problems, this book covers advanced models involving due-dates, sequence dependent changeover times and batching
