Asymptotic Analysis of SPTA-Based Algorithms for No-Wait Flow Shop Scheduling Problem with Release Dates

Blog Article

We address the scheduling problem for a no-wait flow shop to optimize total completion time with RECOVER SHAMPOO release dates.With the tool of asymptotic analysis, we prove that the objective values of two SPTA-based algorithms converge to the optimal value for sufficiently large-sized problems.To further enhance the performance of the SPTA-based algorithms, an improvement scheme based on local search is provided for moderate scale problems.New lower bound is presented for evaluating the asymptotic Knee Sleeves optimality of the algorithms.Numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.
