This paper examines scheduling problems in which the setup phase of each operation needs to be attended by a single server, common for all jobs and different from the processing machines. The objective in each situation is to minimize the makespan. For the processing system consisting of two paralle

## Abstract This paper presents a branchβandβprice algorithm for scheduling __n__ jobs on __m__ nonhomogeneous parallel machines with multiple time windows. An additional feature of the problem is that each job falls into one of __Ο__ priority classes and may require two operations. The objective i
Scheduling deteriorating jobs is an area of research which has attracted much attention recently. In this paper the problem of single machine scheduling, where the values of jobs remaining after processing deteriorate over time, is presented. A branch and bound method is developed, which, using the
