This article discusses the problem of scheduling a large set of parts on an FMS so as to minimize the total completion time. Here, the FMS consists of a set of parallel identical machines. Setup time is incurred whenever a machine switches from one type of part to another. The setup time may be larg
Consider a number of jobs to be processed on a number of identical machines in parallel. A job has a processing time, a weight and a due date. If a job is followed by another job, a setup time independent of the machine is incurred. A three phase heuristic is presented for minimizing the sum of the
