Some simple scheduling algorithms

Abstract

This paper considers situations in which jobs require only one operation on a single machine, or on one of a set of identical machines. Penalty‐free interruption is allowed. Some simple algorithms are given for finding optimum schedules to minimize maximum lateness and total delay, for the single‐machine case, and maximum lateness for a restricted multi‐machine case. A simple flow problem formulation permits minimizing maximum lateness for the more general multimachine case.
