We study two single-machine scheduling problems: minimizing the sum of weighted earliness, tardiness and due date assignment penalties and minimizing the weighted number of tardy jobs and due date assignment costs. We prove that both problems are strongly NP-hard and give polynomial solutions for so
In this paper we consider a due-date assignment and single machine scheduling problem in which the jobs have compressible processing times. Two models are defined according to the due-date assignment methods used. The first model applies the common (constant) due-date assignment method to assign the
This paper considers the problem of optimal assignment of slack due-dates to n jobs and sequencing them on a single-machine to minimize a penalty function depending on the values of the assigned slack allowance and maximum job tardiness. It is shown that the earliest due-date order yields an optimal
