Short Term vs. Long Term Scheduling. Most computer operating systems must multi-task. They use a scheduling algorithm that decides which of the many processes can be run at any given time.

Integration Goals Integration of process planning and scheduling seeks to create new efficiencies for the manufacturer that allow the business to save money.

Round-Robin (RR) is the vastly used process scheduling algorithm where, all processes are allocated some time shares in a circular order.

We review the computational complexity of a wide variety of no-wait and blocking scheduling problems and describe several problems which remain open as to complexity. We study several deterministic ...

Most delays in the air transport occur at the airport. A particular reason is the complexity of managing the large number of supporting flows in airport logistics. We consider the optimisation problem ...
