Abstract

Industrial production systems consist of components that gradually wear off. This chapter introduces the Weighted Uncapacitated Planned Maintenance Problem (WUPMP). The maintenance activities cover a set of periods before they must be executed again. The trade-off results from the cost structure. The strongly $$\mathcal{N}\mathcal{P}$$ -hard WUPMP has the single-assignment property and the polytope is quasi-integral. A generalized period covering constraint has an integral polytope. The computational complexity of several problem variants is resolved. The WUPMP is solvable time O(n ⋅ T n+1 ⋅ 2 n ) and strongly polynomially solvable if the number of maintenance activities is a constant. Other optimal, strongly polynomial algorithms to different problem variants are provided. The WUPMP is a generalization of Uncapacitated Facility Location Problem but a special problem variant of the Uncapacitated Network Design Problem and of the Set Partitioning Problem. Structural insights for the Capacitated Planned Maintenance Problem (CPMP) are provided.
