商品簡介
Leung (computer science, New Jersey Institute of Technology) provides coverage of recent and advanced topics in scheduling. Contributors from management, industrial engineering, operations, and computer science introduce basics of notation, complexity, and scheduling algorithms, then discuss classical scheduling problems, other scheduling models, real-time scheduling, stochastic scheduling and queueing networks, and applications. They examine job shop, flow shop, open shop, and cycle shop problems, introduce constraint programming and a new vehicle routing heuristic known as Very Large Scale Neighborhood Search, and describe applications in transportation, process industries, hospitals, and educational institutions.
