This paper considers the scheduling problem to minimize total tardiness given multiple machines, ready times, sequence dependent setups, machine downtime and scarce tools. We develop a genetic algorithm based on random keys representation, elitist reproduction, Bernoulli crossover and immigration ty

## Abstract We describe a realβlife problem arising at a crane rental company. This problem is a generalization of the basic crew scheduling problem given in Mingozzi et al. [18] and Beasley and Cao [6]. We formulate the problem as an integer programming problem and establish ties with the integer
We consider a general class of multiprocessor shop scheduling problems, preemptive or non-preemptive, with precedence constraints between operations, with job or operation release dates, and with a class of objective functions including weighted sums of job, operations and stage completion times. We
