## Abstract We consider the problem of scheduling orders on identical machines in parallel. Each order consists of one or more individual jobs. A job that belongs to an order can be processed by any one of the machines. Multiple machines can process the jobs of an order concurrently. No setup is re

AbstractΓWe consider the problem of scheduling n identical jobs with unequal ready times on m parallel uniform machines to minimize the maximum lateness. This paper develops a branch-and-bound procedure that optimally solves the problem and introduces six simple single-pass heuristic procedures that
We study the problem of minimizing the weighted number of late jobs to be scheduled on a single machine when processing times are equal. In this paper, we show that this problem, as well as its preemptive variant, are strongly polynomial. When preemption is not allowed ( 1"p H "p, r H " w H ; H ), t
