Abstract

This paper proposes a novel method of Pareto front generation from a set of piecewise linear trade-off curves typically encountered in bi-objective just-in-time (JIT) scheduling problems. We have considered the simultaneous minimization of total weighted earliness and tardiness (TWET) and total flowtime (TFT) objectives in a single-machine scheduling problem (SMSP) with distinct job due dates allowing inserted idle times in the schedules. An optimal timing algorithm (OTA) is presented to generate the trade-off curve between TWET and TFT for a given sequence of jobs. The proposed method of Pareto front generation generates a Pareto-optimal front constituted of both line segments and points. Further, we employ a simple local search method to generate sequences of jobs and their respective trade-off curves, which are trimmed and merged to generate the Pareto-optimal front using the proposed method. Computational results obtained using problem instances of different sizes reveal the efficiency of the proposed OTA and the Pareto front generation method over the state-of-the-art methodologies adopted from the literature.
