## Abstract In many practical manufacturing environments, jobs to be processed can be divided into different families such that a setup is required whenever there is a switch from processing a job of one family to another job of a different family. The time for setup could be sequence independent o
## a b s t r a c t We consider a parallel-machine scheduling problem with a learning effect and the makespan objective. The impact of the learning effect on job processing times is modelled by the general DeJong's learning curve. For this NP-hard problem we propose two exact algorithms: a sequenti
We consider the problem of scheduling n independent jobs on two identical parallel machines, with a limit on the number of jobs that can be assigned to each single machine, so as to minimize the total weighted completion time of the jobs. We study a semideΓΏnite programming-based approximation algori
