## Abstract A basic problem in scheduling involves the sequencing of a set of independent tasks at a single facility with the objective of minimizing mean tardiness. Although the problem is relatively simple, the determination of an optimal sequence remains a challenging combinatorial problem. A nu
The paper deals with the single-machine total tardiness problem. It investigates the authors' most recent branch and bound algorithm and discovers the following paradoxes. Deleting a lower bound drastically improves the performance of the algorithm, while adding a stronger component, like a better d
The paper deals with the solution of the single machine total tardiness model. It improves and generalizes an important rule to decompose the model into two subproblems. It also provides a O(n) procedure to implement this rule and its generalization. Those two rules, along with some known results, a
