✦ Synopsis
The paper concerns the application of a non-classical performance measure, a late work criterion (Y; Yw), to scheduling problems. It estimates the quality of the obtained solution with regard to the duration of the late parts of tasks not taking into account the quantity of this delay. The paper provides the formal deÿnition of the late work parameter, especially in the shop environment, together with its practical motivation. It contains general complexity studies and the results of investigating open-shop scheduling cases, i.e. two polynomial time algorithms for problems O | pmtn; ri | Yw and O2 | di = d | Y , as well as the binary NP-hardness proof for O2 | di = d | Yw.

Only few exact solution methods are available for the open shop scheduling problem. We describe a branch-and-bound algorithm for solving this problem which performs better than other existing algorithms. The key to the e ciency of our algorithm lies in the following approach: instead of analysing an
We present the first polynomial-time algorithm for an open-shop problem with unit execution times, arbitrary release dates, and due dates. The objective is to minimize maximum lateness. 0 I995 John Wiley & Sons. Inc.
